“…It is also highly affected by atmospheric, magnetospheric, and solar events and is often unstable. Thus, there are many different phenomena seen in the ionosphere, such as ducted and gravity waves (Taylor, 1997), bores (Smith et al, 2003), sporadic-E (Mathews et al, 2001a;Kelley et al, 2003), equatorial anomaly (Kelley et al, 2000a), spread-F (ESF) and Plumes (Mendillo et al, 1997;Mathews et al, 2001b;Makela, 2004b;Makela et al, 2004a), plasma bubbles and instabilities, traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) (Mendillo et al, 1997;Kelley et al, 2000b;Kelley et al, 2002), midnight temperature maximum (MTM), and brightness waves (BW) (Herrero and Meriwether, 1980;Colerico et al, 1996;Mendillo et al, 1997).…”
