ELF-VLF Radio Wave Propagation Proceedings of the NATO Advanced Study Institute held at Spåtind, Norway, April 17–27, 1974

This volume is based on lectures and discussions presented at a NATO Advanced Study Institute on ELF and VLF Radio Wave Propagation, which was held in Norway April 1974. The study of propagation of electromagnetic waves with frequen­ cies below 100 kHz has long traditions in ionospheric physics. To-...
