Meteor head echo altitude distributions and the height cutoff effect studied with the EISCAT HPLA UHF and VHF radars

Meteor head echo altitude distributions have been derived from data collected with the EISCAT VHF (224MHz) and UHF (930MHz) high-power, large-aperture (HPLA) radars. At the high-altitude end, the distributions cut off abruptly in a manner reminiscent of the trail echo height ceiling effect obser...
