Scientific paper

Recently, the Johns Hopkins University Applied Physics Laboratory in collaboration with the Goddard Space Flight Center Wallops Flight Facility began operation of a new SuperDARN radar located near the Wallops Island sounding rocket launch site. This is the prototype of a proposed expansion of the current high-latitude SuperDARN radar network to allow improved determination of the spatial and temporal evolution of storm-time convection and electric fields in the subauroral and mid-latitude ionospheres. In this paper, we present some of the exciting initial observations with the new radar and discuss how it might be extended into a global network. The global network will require international participation that has already begun. The North-American component of SuperDARN-Storms will eventually require the construction of 6 radars sited at 3 locations across the U.S.
