First results of the polar cap ionosphere based on EISCAT Svalbard and Heiss Island rocket data Original Research Article

The ionosphere of the polar cap is for obvious reasons poorly investigated and has only recently become accessible on a larger scale since the advent of the Svalbard incoherent scatter radar facility. We present first results from EISCAT Svalbard combined with rocket data from Heiss Island for quiet conditions, from the D- to the F-region.
