Scientific paper

There is mounting evidence that the seed perturbations, which initiate bubble formation, may directly influence large-scale depletion features, and may also account for some of the observed variations in seasonal and longitudinal (s/l) bubble occurrence. While previous scintillation and in-situ studies have examined occurrence frequency patterns, they do not readily isolate the effect of seeds. We characterize pre-midnight depletion regions here in terms of their large-scale properties of width, depth, and spacing. Our results demonstrate that large-scale bubble features vary significantly with longitude and season, and point to a similar variation in seed properties.
