HAARP Diagnostic Instruments
The HAARP program has developed an extensive set of scientific research instruments useful
for monitoring the Earth's geophysical and electromagnetic background. Information available
from these instruments descibes physical conditions in the ionosphere and magnetosphere
that affect communication and navigation systems.
These instruments serve an essential, diagnostic role during active ionospheric research,
providing knowledge of local ionospheric conditions prior to, during and after research
periods. Data collected from these instruments are processed and displayed at the site,
allowing scientists to monitor results of ongoing experiments in real time.
Monitoring the outputs from these instruments on a day-to-day basis provides insight into
the correlation between radio propagation conditions and certain geophysical processes.
Currently available data products can be found on our Data Index page
which provides a convenient access to some of these results. All of the following
instruments are installed either at the HAARP Research Station or elsewhere in Alaska.
