Research Abstract

The interaction between the ionospheric plasma and thermospheric neutral winds in the mid-and high-latitude region was investigated using the SuperDARN HF radar network. The main subjects of this project are : 1) dynamics of sub-auroral polarization streams, 2) large and medium scale traveling ionospheric disturbances, and 3) coseismic ionospheric disturbances.
