Scientific paper

The thermospheric and ionospheric data from a rocket experiment over SHAR are used to make a direct comparison between meridional winds estimated from bottomside ionograms and results of coordinated in situ measurements. The meridional wind 'U' is estimated to be poleward over SHAR with a magnitude of 43 +/- 22 m/s. This value is in good agreement with the directly measured meridional wind velocity (54 +/- 10 m/s) using the neutral strontium cloud.
