Scientific paper

Within the low altitude boundary layer a variety of plasma wave processes occur. Two processes, high latitude turbulence and electrostatic hydrogen cyclotron (EHC) waves are reviewed. High altitude turbulence appears to be a fluid process whose behavior can be explained in part by nonlinear two dimensional fluid turbulence. In laboratory plasmas, EHC waves are produced by a resonant interaction with either ion beams or drifting electrons. There exists evidence that drifting electrons and ion beams are sources of free energy for the EHC wave observed by S3-3. There also exists evidence that EHC waves are a source of energy for ion conics.
