Geophysical phenomena during an ionospheric modification experiment at Tromsø, Norway

Abstract: Abstract. We present an analysis of phenomena observed by HF distance-diagnostic tools located in St. Petersburg combined with multi-instrument observation at Tromsù in the HF modi®ed ionosphere during a magnetospheric substorm. The observed phenomena that occurred during the Tromsù heating experiment in the nightside auroral E s region of the ionosphere depend on the phase of substorm. The heating excited smallscale ®eld-aligned irregularities in the E region responsible for ®eld-aligned scattering of diagnos… Show more

“…There are some grounds to believe that the motion of the heater-induced small-scale irregularities in the auroral E-region is not always consistent with the background plasma drift. Supporting evidence includes a similar Tromsø HF pumping experiment carried out on 17 February 1996 in the nightside auroral ionosphere (Blagoveshchenskaya et al, 1998a). During this experiment on the London -Tromsø -St. Petersburg path, the pump wave reflected from a sporadic E s layer and well-defined heater-induced Doppler tracks were observed.…”

“…We report experimental results related to probing medium-scale traveling ionospheric disturbances using HF-induced scatter targets at mid-and high latitudes. With bi-static HF Doppler scatter, the AFAIs are being studied at middle (Blagoveshchenskaya and Troshichev, 1996;Yampolski et al, 1997;Blagoveshchenskaya et al, 1998a) and high latitudes (Blagoveshchenskaya et al, 1998b(Blagoveshchenskaya et al, , 1999(Blagoveshchenskaya et al, , 2006Rietveld et al, 2003). The proposed observational technique was used for the first time to identify the medium-scale TIDs.…”

“…It is well known that O-mode heating is capable of generating artificial field aligned irregularities (AFAI) using high power HF radio waves (e.g. Hedberg et al, 1983;Djuth et al, 1985;Blagoveshchenskaya and Troshichev, 1996;Yampolski et al, 1997;Blagoveshchenskaya et al, 1998;Eglitis et al, 1998;Robinson, 1989;Rietveld et al, 2003). These irregularities are detectable by both incoherent and coherent scatter radars (e.g.…”
