What is it about?

Structuring in the ionosphere can impact on the radio communication between earth and satellites.

Why is it important?

Moder day navigation and communication systems are space based in large part, which therefore are influenced by the ionosphere.

Perspectives

This publication is helpful to understand the mechanism by which plasma instability processes lead to structuring and irregularity formation in the Earth's equatorial ionosphere.
