Scientific paper

From April to October 1987 an oblique ionospheric sounder was deployed on Macquarie Island in order to study F-region traveling ionospheric disturbances in the southern auroral region. The signal strength and change in phase path of the received 3.399 MHz continuous signal were recorded digitally, and dynamic power spectra produced using the maximum entropy method. Interesting results for daytime traveling ionospheric disturbances for May-August 1987 have been obtained. Many data records illustrated a strong correlation between oscillations in the phase path and the received amplitude of the sounding signal, as predicted for a sinusoidal ionospheric reflector model.
