Density enhancements associated with equatorial spread <I>F</I>

Forces governing the three-dimensional structure of equatorial spread-<I>F</I> (ESF) plumes are examined using the NRL SAMI3/ESF three-dimensional simulation code. As is the case with the equatorial ionization anomaly (IA), density crests within the plume occur where gravitational an...
