Abstract
MF differential absorption data are fitted with a function which cannot exhibit a negative gradient with increasing scattering height. The fit error which results from such a fit is then interpreted to be an error in the reflection coefficient ratio of the magneto-ionic waves in the medium. It is shown that this error is caused by significant mean departures from the theoretical reflection coefficient ratio, and that the height profile of these departures recur on an annual and seasonal basis from 1983 to 1999. Also shown is that this error in the reflection coefficient ratio shows pronounced tidal characteristics, suggesting a link to dynamic processes in the neutral atmosphere.
