Possible shapes and spatial scales of ionospheric irregularities in the lower ionosphere have been determined from analyses of two sets of radio wave back-scattering observations: measurements of the spatial scale of the ground pattern of the wave field back-scattered from altitudes near 95 km and measurements of the amount and angular distribution of power back-scattered from solitary horizontally-moving irregularities at altitudes near 75 km. At 95 km the irregularities are anisotropic, with larger horizontal than vertical dimensions. For an assumed Gaussian distribution of ionization, the inferred axial ratio (horizontal to vertical) is about three. It is tentatively concluded that the irregularities at 75 km are sharply bounded and are some kilometres in horizontal extent.

A large sampled-aperture antenna array has been used to investigate the structure of the radio wave field scattered by meteor trails. The experiment measured the phase and amplitude of the radio waves in the frequency range 20 to 30 MHz at 58 points distributed over an aperture of almost 1.2 km. The temporal changes in the structure of the scattered radiation clearly show the influence of distortion of the meteor trails by atmospheric winds, but are incompatible with the widely accepted model which attributes fading and anomalous decay times to the distortion of a single trail. The observations seem to imply the simultaneous existence of two or more trails but whether these trails are due to fragmentation of the meteoroid in the atmosphere or to simultaneous entry of independent meteoroids is not clear.
