On the role of anisotropic MF/HF scattering in mesospheric wind estimation

Abstract The Saura radar is designed and used to measure winds and electron densities at polar latitudes (69$$^\circ $$ ∘ N) within the D region, namely between 50 and 100 km altitude. A relatively narrow radar beam can be generated and steered into distinct pointing directions as a rather large ant...
