CHARACTERISTICS OF THE HIGH-LATITUDE TROUGH
The EISCAT radar has provided data for a comprehensive study of the high—latitude trough in electron concentration, which occurs in the auroral zone. In this paper the characteristics of the trough are illustrated, the method of its formation is outlined and important features of the trough are desc...
