KELLEY %J 物理学报 %D 1994 %I %X Basic properties of large scale irregularities in the rnid-latitude ionospheric F region and their relationship with atmospheric gravity waves are studied. The temporal evolution of the plasma Perkins instability is analyzed. It is found that the instability saturates at a small amplitude. The coupling between the Perkins instability and gravity waves is discussed and it is shown that gravity waves can initiate the plasma instability in the mid-latitude F region. The plasma instability initiated by gravity waves can evolve into steady-state perturbations, large amplitude wave-like structures, and spatially and temporally modulated irregularities. The theory indicates the production mechanism of the large scale irregularities in the mid-latitude ionosphere. %K 中纬电离层 %K 不均匀体 %K 重力波 %U http://www.alljournals.cn/get_abstract_url.aspx?pcid=6E709DC38FA1D09A4B578DD0906875B5B44D4D294832BB8E&cid=47EA7CFDDEBB28E0&jid=29DF2CB55EF687E7EFA80DFD4B978260&aid=F8E9EA2F3C514E6E22B4E44F1FCB9280&yid=3EBE383EEA0A6494&vid=BE33CC7147FEFCA4&iid=9CF7A0430CBB2DFD&sid=8D1ED028DF2147F4&eid=44B95CDA8EBD6F56&journal_id=1000-3290&journal_name=物理学报&referenced_num=0&reference_num=1
