Journal ArticleDOI
Some properties of upper atmosphere dynamics.
TL;DR: In this article, a unified description of important dynamic properties of the upper atmosphere in composition and temperature characteristic of a variety of phenomena, including diurnal and seasonal tides, magnetic storms, and momentum coupling with the magnetosphere, is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Production and prediction of sporadic E
TL;DR: A survey of the experimental observations and theories of formation of all types of sporadic E can be found in this article, where the wind-shear theory is most likely to explain temperate-zone sporadic E and radio aurora reflections.
Journal ArticleDOI
Determination of the Structure of the Atmosphere between 90 and 250 km by means of Contaminant Releases at Woomera, May 1968
TL;DR: In this article, a series of measurements of neutral atmospheric wind velocity, turbulent structure, temperature and density were made during each launch between 90 and 250 km altitude, combining the experimental techniques of the two groups involved.
Journal ArticleDOI
Measurement of ionospheric movements
TL;DR: In this paper, the results obtained within each of the classes of methods are summarized and possible relationships between them discussed, together with the difficulties that occur in the interpretation of its results.
Journal ArticleDOI
The measurement of high altitude wind velocities from vapour releases - II. Computer method
TL;DR: In this article, a digital computer method is described for determining accurately and quickly the position in space of either a luminous vapour trail or a small luminous vapor cloud, by analysing data from photographs of the object and of the star field from at least two camera positions.
