Download or read book A Survey of Spread-F. written by F N Glover and published by . This book was released on 1960 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Examples of spread-F forms occurring at different latitudes are presented, illustrating the classification of spread into range type and frequency type. The occurrence patterns of spread-F at different latitudes are correlated with other geophysical phenomena. Magnetic latitude and time within the sunspot cycle appreciably affect the pattern of spread occurrence. Instrumental techniques and their advantages for spread studies are outlined. The principal theoretical explanation of spread-F are summarized. A single mechanism need not be postulated as responsible for all types of spread occurrence or at all latitudes.
