Scientific paper

Mesospheric winds and electron densities at 44 deg S have been measured by the partial reflection of 2.4-MHz radio waves. Observations suggest that a decreased zonal wind is frequently accompanied by increased meridional wind, D-region electron densities and minimum frequencies. In this paper, wind is considered as a vector quantity. Thus, an increased zonal wind means an increase in the magnitude of the eastward wind, a decrease in the magnitude of the westward wind, or a change in direction from westward to eastward.
