Abstract. The study considers simultaneous plasma velocity measurements in the eastward direction carried out by the Clyde River (CLY) Super Dual Auroral Radar Network (SuperDARN) high-frequency (HF) radar and Resolute Bay (RB) incoherent scatter radar – Canada (RISR-C). The HF velocities are found to be in reasonable agreement with RISR velocities up to magnitudes of 700–800 m s−1 while, for faster flows, the HF velocity magnitudes are noticeably smaller. The eastward plasma flow component inferred from SuperDARN convection maps (constructed for the area of joint measurements with consideration of velocity data from all the radars of the network) shows the effect of smaller HF velocities more notably. We show that the differences in eastward velocities between the two instruments can be significant and prolonged for observations of strongly sheared plasma flows.

Abstract. The study considers simultaneous plasma velocity measurements in the eastward direction carried out by the Clyde River SuperDARN HF radar and Resolute Bay incoherent scatter radar RISR-C. The HF velocities are found to be in reasonable agreement with RISR velocities up to magnitudes of 700–800 m/s while for faster flows, the HF velocity magnitudes are noticeably smaller. The plasma flows eastward component inferred from SuperDARN convection maps (constructed for the area of joint measurements) shows the effect of smaller HF velocities even at smaller velocities. We show that the differences between the instruments can be significant and prolonged for observations of strongly-sheared plasma flows.
