Scientific paper

Partial reflection differential absorption and differential phase observations have been used to systematically study collision frequencies /(ν) in D-region of the lower ionosphere. The observations made with the large MF radar located at Buckland Park (35°S,138°E) near Adelaide in the period September 1996-December 2000 show /ν values larger than predicted by previously used models. The new estimates are compared with values calculated using new collision frequency momentum cross-sections for N2(σ) measured in the laboratory. The two types of measurements are found to be in good agreement, with a moderate seasonal variation of /ν at a constant height. No change due to solar cycle variations is found.
