Meteoric diffusion studies of middle atmospheric dynamical structure

This work investigates the use of ambipolar diffusion coefficients determined by the decay times of meteors detected by the University of Canterbury's meteor radar, AMOR, in determining dynamical parameters for the middle atmosphere. The radar system has the ability to accurately determine the...
