Wave Interaction in the Lower Ionosphere - A Survey,

Abstract

A summarization of the reviews to date on the field of wave interaction in the lower ionosphere is attempted. This covers the study of the interaction process and the determination of electron density, N, and electron-neutral collisional frequency, nu, height distributions in D-region. The current status of the use of this technique in synoptic profile procurement and the role of this work in investigations on the physics and chemistry of this region are outlined. (Author)
