Spread-F ionospheric irregularities and their relationship to stable auroral red arcs at magnetic mid-latitudes

The signature of the stable auroral red arc (SAR arc) as it appears on ionograms is described. The key features are a very significant increase in the amount of spread-F and a reduction in the maximum plasma density compared with regions just equatorward and poleward of the SAR arc Identification of...
