Latitude-height cross sections of the total number/occurrence frequency (1/1,000) of sporadic E layers (upper/lower row). Shown are 3-monthly mean zonal means over an 11-km sliding height interval for solstice (December to February, left column) and equinox (March to May, right column), using the FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC satellite data from December 2006 to November 2012.
