Popis: Electron temperature in the sporadic E layer was measured with a Glass-sealed Langmuir probe at mid latitude station in Japan in the framework of the SEEK (Sporadic E Experiment over Kyushu) - two campaign which was conducted in August 2002, Important findings are twofold (1) Ne and Te vary in the opposite sense in the height range of 100 - 108 km and Te in the Es layer is lower than that of ambient plasma, (2) Te in these height ranges is higher than the possible range of neutral temperature. These findings strongly suggest either that the heat source that elevates Te much higher than possible Tn is still missing at around 100 km, though the most strong candidate is vibrationally excited molecular nitrogen, or that the physical parameter values which are used for the current theory on electron temperature are not proper.
