Simulation of the seeding of equatorial spread F by circular gravity waves (2013, background): “[2] The mechanisms that trigger the equatorial spread F (ESF) [Haerendel, 1974; Ossakow, 1981; Hysell, 2000; Makela, 2006] instability, also known as the generalized Rayleigh‐Taylor instability, remain a topic of intense interest in the ionospheric research community.”
Three‐dimensional equatorial spread F modeling (2008, background): “However, an observational study by Mendillo et al. [2001] did not find any convincing evidence for the wind suppression mechanism; nevertheless, this is an important issue that requires further investigation to better understand day-to-day variability of ESF.”
On monthly/seasonal/longitudinal variations of equatorial irregularity occurrences and their relationship with the postsunset vertical drift velocities (2008, background): “Such de-emphasis of the importance of the perturbation seeds from atmospheric disturbances can also be inferred from the extensive studies of bottom-type layers as the precursors of large-scale radar plumes observed by JULIA radar reported by Hysell and Burcham [1998] and Hysell [2000] .”
Spread F – an old equatorial aeronomy problem finally resolved? (2009, methodology): “Spectral shapes, wave steepening and their possible physical origin are extensively discussed in a review by Hysell (2000).”
