Abstract:
We present, in this paper, an overview of theories of naturally occurring high latitude E and F region ionospheric irregularities. (For a review of artificially-induced irregularities, e.g., from ionospheric 'heating' experiments, see Fejer 1979.) Emphasis is placed on recent results, particularly with regard to sources of high latitude irregularities. Physical mechanisms are stressed with extensive mathematical analysis avoided. Expertise in plasma physics has not been assumed. We summarize the recent and previous theoretical literature dealing with F region irregularities, and we concentrate on E region irregularity phenomena.
