High latitude ionospheric structures:- • Polar Patches • Polar cap auroras • Poleward Moving Auroral Forms • Sporadic-E • Spread-F • Troughs • ?
Polar patches 1996 March 3
Poleward Moving Auroral Forms Shiokawa et al., JGR 1997
Conclusions • There are many different high latitude structures • Most can easily be identified by their appearance on fixed frequency recordings • It is not obvious that we have identified all the different types of structures
