TLDR
In this paper, the gradient coupling within the ionospheric plasma in the presence of local variation of atmospheric heating and other modifications during high power radio wave propagation has been studied and the appropriate form of coupled equations for the modified situation is obtained.
Abstract
The gradient coupling within the ionospheric plasma in the presence of local variation of atmospheric heating and other modifications during high power radio wave propagation has been studied The appropriate form of coupled equations for the modified situation is obtained The electromagnetic and acoustic modes of wave propagation have been separated and solved, by the WKB method Field quantities may be used to explore different properties of the medium under the modified condition

Ionospheric irregularities produced by internal atmospheric gravity waves

TL;DR: In this article, a perturbation treatment is used to determine the nature and magnitude of the effects of internal atmospheric gravity waves on the ambient rates of production, chemical loss, and motion of the ionization.

HF Doppler studies of traveling ionospheric disturbances

TL;DR: In this article, a network of CW Doppler sounders was used to detect ionospheric motions observed with a network-of-CW Dopplers. The motions of each type are attributed to various kinds of atmospheric waves that interact with the ionosphere.

Atmospheric gravity waves launched by auroral currents

TL;DR: In this article, a model calculation is performed by which the magnitude and form of the anticipated atmospheric wave train may be assessed, and both are found to be consistent with observations already recorded, but the question as to whether the Lorentz force or the Joule dissipation is the more important exciting agency provided by the current, is left unanswered because of present uncertainties connected with the nature of the current itself.

Coupled forms of the differential equations governing radio propagation in the ionosphere

P. C. Clemmow, +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the first-order coupled equations governing the propagation of electromagnetic waves in the ionosphere, previously obtained in symbolic matrix form (Clemmow and Heading ( 4 )), are expressed explicitly in terms of the ionospheric parameters.
