Profiles of electron density with MF radar at Yamagawa, Japan.

ResourceID
spase://IUGONET/NumericalData/NICT/SALMON/YAM/MFradar/DAE/mfr_yam_txt

Description

The radar transmits radio pulses vertically into the upper atmosphere at 1.9550 MHz. Returns will be produced by stratified layers and irregularities in the ionospheric D-region, to deduce height profiles of electron density at 50 - 100 km.
