| Title | Upper Atmosphere Physics observation at Zhongshan Station |
| Sub-Title | |
| Data Summary | Collaborative study on auroral phenomena at Zhongshan station between NIPR, Japan and Polar Research Institute of China (PRIC) started in 1994. One of the main purpose is to do a simultaneous observation with the Syowa east SuperDARN radar. Following instruments were supplied from Japan: All-sky TV camera, Meridian scanning photometer (MSP), Imaging riometer, Fluxgate magnetometer, All-sky CCD imager. PRIC installed Digital ionosonde. All the data from the Japanese instruments are duplicated and sent to NIPR after observation. During 2001 to 2005, the Meteor Burst Communication (MBC) experiment was carried out between Zhongshan and Syowa Stations. |
