Dr. William Bristow's current research interests include studies of winds in the upper atmosphere, studies of the
magnetosphere-ionosphere coupling, and space-weather effects on
radio propagation, which directly impacts radio communications in
high-latitude regions. Dr. Bristow is the principle investigator
for the SuperDARN network which consists of two radar systems in
Alaska.
