Total Time Requested: 24 Hours
Proposal Title: Arecibo Observations of Gravity Waves Associated with Solar Eclipse Ionospheric
Depletion
ABSTRACT:
The observation will determine the strength of gravity waves that may be induced by a solar eclipse. The
ionospheric perturbation caused cooling, recombination, and diusion is expected to leave a wake of the lunar
shadow which propagates away in a gravity wave mode. The incoherent scatter radar at Arecibo is ideally located
to detect these gravity waves and provide valuable information on the ionospheric response.
