Two Techniques for Determining F‐Region Ion Velocities at Meso‐Scales: Differences and Impacts on Joule Heating

We have investigated the difference between two standard techniques for deriving the ionospheric ion velocity using data taken with the EISCAT incoherent scatter radar between 1987 and 2007. For large‐scale convection flows, there is little difference between the tristatic and monostatic techniques,...
