The combination of the ISIS 1 spacecraft and Chatanika radar is seen as ideal for studying ionization irregularities. The radar can obtain electron density profiles with better large-scale resolution than the ISIS 1 sounder in regions of extreme horizontal gradients, and the sounder and ISIS 1 cylindrical electrostatic probes (CEPs) are able to examine small-scale structure that is beyond the resolution of the radar. It is noted that the CEP are Langmuir probes, which measure electron or ion current as the probe voltage is varied. The electron density is in proportion to this current. In the study described here, comparisons of ISIS and radar data give new insight into the east-west extent and spatial coexistence of different size irregularities and into the generation of both large- and small-scale irregularities.
