Scientific paper

The September 2005 incoherent scatter radar world month yielded an exciting and scientifically challenging set of nearly continuous observations from many of the World's ISR facilities. While EISCAT and Millstone Hill had previously operated for periods of roughly this length (and longer), this was the first time the Sondrestrom Radar had collected such an extended data set. In addition, the Sondrestrom data set is somewhat unique in that it attempted to provide both high resolution local measurements with significant spatial coverage. This, in conjunction with an especially interesting period from a space weather perspective, provides a unique opportunity to test numerous aspects of the response of the upper atmosphere/ionosphere to varying solar- produced drivers. The Sondrestrom measurements were designed to cover both local plasma parameters/ electrodynamics and latitudinally extended coverage of electric fields. In this talk we will both show an overview of the measurements collected over this month's observations as well as specific events within the month. We will show temporal variability on time scales from many days down to 10s of minutes and, to the extent possible, relate those to solar wind and magnetospheric drivers.
