Scientific paper

Three-dimensional computer simulation is performed for the plasma inhomogeneities of the arbitrary non-linearity and form in the ionosphere. It is shown that small-scale a (perpendicular) 100 m cloud evolution is governed by the diffusion. For the very strong inhomogeneities cloud evolution is determined by the non-linear deformation in the self-consistent electric field. Large-scale inhomogeneities' evolution with a (perpendicular) of about 3-5 km could be described by equipotential magnetic field line models. The intermediate case is also analyzed. The simulation results are consistent with 'Spolokh' experimental data.
