Scientific paper

Rocket observations of the electron density and neutral winds conducted during the morning, evening and night-times show that the sporadic E layers observed over an equatorial station, Thumba, cannot be explained in terms of the currently available version of the wind shear theory. These observations also suggest, strongly, that the modified version of the wind shear theory must include the effect of the vertical electric field and the shear in the meridional wind, in addition to the shear in the zonal wind.
