Artificially produced ions are released from a point source a few meters above ground surface. It is shown experimentally and theoretically that they form a plume rather similar to a smoke plume. Measurements of vertical electric field and space charge concentration downwind yield information about the ion plume, and its behavior is related to local meteorological conditions. Results with a bidirectional vane suggest that ions can be used successfully as a tracer in short range atmospheric diffusion studies.
