Radar observations of energy deposition and dissipation in the high-latitude ionosphere

The high-latitude ionosphere is a dynamic region, in which a variety of phenomena including particle precipitation, currents and waves contribute to the energy budget. In this thesis, statistical and case studies of ion frictional heating are presented, including investigations into the dependence o...
