Scientific paper

A method to measure the reflection coefficient of the sporadic E-layer using a conventional ionosonde is described, and some results obtained at Sodankyla, Finland (Phi = 63.8 deg, Lambda = 120.0 deg), are presented. The observations are often found to be in agreement with the theoretical frequency dependence of the reflection coefficient of a thin horizontal layer in the presence of mode coupling. Some of the results can be interpreted as indicative of scattering from small-scale irregularities or reflections from larger inhomogeneities in the Es layer.
