EISCAT observations and TRANSCAR simulation of the solar eclipse of August 1, 2008
Abstract SA33B-1639 On 1 August 2008, the footprint of the solar eclipse passed north east of the Svalbard archipelago, where the EISCAT Svalbard Radars (ESR) are installed. The radars measured a depletion in electron density in the low F-region of a factor ~10 and a decrease in temperature of about...
