Vertical fine structure and time evolution of plasma irregularities in the E s layer observed by a high-resolution Ca+ lidar

Abstract The vertical fine structures and the time evolution of plasma irregularities in the sporadic E (E s) layer were observed via calcium ion (Ca+) density measurements using a resonance scattering lidar with a high time-height resolution (5 s and 15 m) at Tachikawa (35.7°N, 139.4°E) on December...
