Abstract
HF auroral backscatter recordings were made using the Verona Ava linear array radar (VALAR) during 1990. The authors present an example of initial results from the analysis of HF data collected during September 1990. The range-azimuth distribution and Doppler characteristics of 2F ground backscatter from the sub-auroral and the auroral F-region were identified and characterized using amplitude-range-azimuth maps and amplitude-range-Doppler maps
