<div><b><font face="Arial">Session Description:</font></b></div>
<div><font face="Arial">The creation of electron density irregularities in the middle latitude F region is explained in terms of complex physical processes including the E and F region coupling; dynamical and electrodynamical coupling of the ionosphere and
thermosphere; gravity waves induced by the forcing from lower atmosphere and high latitudes; and plasma instabilities. This session aims at providing a comprehensive understanding on the characteristics, distribution, and source of the electron density irregularities
in the middle latitude F region by synthesizing various ground-based and satellite-borne observations and assessing how well those observation results can be explained by currently known theories and models. The session welcomes the presentation of the review
of observational results and underlying physical processes, numerical modeling results, and observations of sporadic E, medium-scale traveling ionospheric disturbances, atmospheric gravity waves, and field-aligned irregularities. </font></div>
