Ionospheric storms can happen at any time and location. [6] F-region and D-region ionospheric storms are also considered main categories of ionospheric storms. The F-region storms occur due to sudden increases of energised electrons instilled into Earth's ionosphere. The F-region is the highest region of the ionosphere.
Ionospheric layers. At night the F layer is the only layer of significant ionization present, while the ionization in the E and D layers is extremely low. During the day, the D and E layers become much more heavily ionized, as does the F layer, which develops an additional, weaker region of ionisation known as the F 1 layer.
A sudden ionospheric disturbance (SID) is any one of several ionospheric perturbations, resulting from abnormally high ionization/plasma density in the D region of the ionosphere and caused by a solar flare and/or solar particle event (SPE).
Requires a higher level of patient understanding and concentration compared to other visual field tests [9] Time-consuming; Learning effect: new patients improve as more tests are performed due to understanding of the test conditions. Consider the third test as the baseline result [23] Potential for artefacts (i.e. uncharacteristic vision loss ...

The test is based on the principle of diplopic projection. [1] Dissociation of the deviation is brought about by presenting a red line image to one eye and a white light to the other, while prisms are used to superimpose these and effectively measure the angle of deviation (horizontal and vertical).
Laser speckle also known as eye testing using speckle can be employed as a method for conducting a very sensitive eye test. [ 1 ] When a surface is illuminated by a laser beam and is viewed by an observer, a speckle pattern is formed on the retina .
The IPP or Ionospheric Pierce Point is the altitude in the ionosphere where electron density is greatest. [ 1 ] These points can change based on factors like time of day, solar activity, and geographical location, which all influence ionospheric conditions.
