The Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN): An overview of its development and science
The Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) is a network of HF coherent scatter radars. At the end of 2012 there were 31 operational radars of which 22 were in the northern hemisphere and 9 in the southern hemisphere. The radars are operated by 17 different research groups from 11 different cou...
