摘要: The general characteristics of ionospheric winds during twilight have been determined from observations the motion and growth sunlit trails alkali vapor. Typical large shears small features are described. Specific wind profiles compared with nearly simultaneous measurements electron concentration rocket-borne probes. Generally, narrow regions enhanced measured by probes do not occur in low velocity region an E-W shear. However, ionization peaks appear to be associated certain other profile.
