Scientific paper

The application of phase-screen analyses to HF array data is complicated by the masking of fine-scale ionospheric irregularities by the complex modulation generated by travelling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs). Compact-array velocimetry data on the instantaneous TID trace velocity are presently used to separate these TID effects from the finer-scale irregularities in the same data set. Upon application of a phase-screen analysis to the transformed data, it is found that, under normal conditions, the irregularities consist of weak random tilts on scales that exceed 1 km. These results underscore the critique of full-reflection irregularities' drift measurements.
