The main parameters that could be obtained from Piura E region measurements are(a) nighttime meridional winds from lower echoes, (b) nighttime electric fields from upperechoes.AcknowledgementsThe Jicamarca <strong>Radio</strong> Observatory is operated by the Instituto Geofísico del Perú, <strong>with</strong>support from the NSF Cooperative Agreement ATM-9911209 through Cornell University.The Piura wind pro<strong>file</strong>r is operated by Laboratorio de Física of Universidad de Piura, Perú,<strong>with</strong> support from NOAA and from the National Science Foundation (NSF) underagreements ATM-9214657, ATM-9614613. The ionospheric observations have beenpartially supported from NSF agreements ATM-9813910.Figure 10.
