INCOHERENT SCATTER Theory, Practice and Science Collection of lectures given in Cargese, Corsica, 1995. Incoherent Scatter spectra computed with a typical EISCAT observation of the ionosphere in the ~ 120 - 500 km altitude range. The spectra shape varies with the altitude as function of the observed electron temperature and of the ion temperature and composition. The spectral power is scaled to the electron density and the spectra are plotted along a line shape representing the altitude profile of the electron density.
