Drift velocities of 150-km Field-Aligned Irregularities observed by the Equatorial Atmosphere Radar

Between 130 and 170 km altitude in the daytime ionosphere, the so-called 150-km field-aligned irregularities (FAIs) have been observed since the 1960s at equatorial regions with several very high frequency (VHF) radars. We report statistical results of 150-km FAI drift velocities on a plane perpendi...
