The high latitude plasma structure campaigns (HLPS) are aimed at the understanding of the general morphology of ionization structures that are observed in the high latitude polar cap thermosphere. Many of the different phenomena that are studied are solar cycle dependent with some of the key processes apparent only at solar maximum. Since the next few years are at the peak of one of the largest solar activity cycles a unique opportunity exists to study these phenomena with extensive coordinated observations at many different polar locations with many different diagnostic instruments. This proposed project is for conducting observations and performing analysis of incoherent scatter radar, all sky imaging photometer, total electron content, scintillation and satellite in-situ measurements. In addition the PI has a major role in the coordination, organization and direction of the overall multi- station instrument campaign activity.*** //

高纬度等离子体结构运动（HLPS）旨在了解在高纬度极帽热层中观察到的电离结构的一般形态。所研究的许多不同现象都依赖于太阳活动周期，其中一些关键过程仅在太阳活动极大期才明显。由于未来几年是最大的太阳活动周期之一的高峰期，因此存在一个独特的机会，可以在许多不同的极地位置使用许多不同的诊断仪器进行广泛的协调观测来研究这些现象。该项目将对非相干散射雷达、全天空成像光度计、总电子含量、闪烁和卫星原位测量进行观测和分析。此外，PI在协调，组织和指导整体多站仪器运动活动方面发挥着重要作用。*** //
