• Radar studies of plasma parameters in the polar cap and the auroral zone 

      Bjoland, Lindis Merete (Doctoral thesis; Doktorgradsavhandling, 2018-04-11)
      Incoherent scatter radar measurements are an important source for studies of ionospheric plasma parameters. Data from the EISCAT Svalbard radar (ESR), which covers the polar cap and cusp, and from the EISCAT Tromsø radars, which covers the auroral zone, can be used to obtain information about the electron density, electron- and ion temperature, and line-of-sight plasma velocity. As the ESR started ...
