摘要: Abstract A sodium LIDAR instrument located at Andenes, Norway (69°N; 16°E) observed several sudden developments of narrow layers in the 90–100 km altitude region. These grow with typical time constants 5 min and have a width 1 altitude. We present temporal spatial properties for number these events. In first step towards identifying processes which create we study correlation growth phase sporadic E layers. The latter been recorded by an ionosonde 129 east site. Within mutual resolution available our common records strong simultaneous occurrence s − l is observed, establishes link between formation two types further discuss potentially could give rise to
