Long-term variations and trends in the ionosphere/thermosphere over Tromso
Over 30 years of EISCAT radar measurements at Tromso are analyzed to determine various ionospheric and thermospheric parameters at high latitude. Plasma momentum equations are used to derive field-aligned electric fields and currents, as well as thermospheric density, from the observations. The results will be presented focusing on solar-cycle variations and long-term trends. The validity of the techniques will be also discussed.
