A physicist whose work with Edward Victor Appleton tested the return of radio waves from the upper atmosphere. Their experiments supplied evidence for reflecting ionized layers and distinguished returns from different heights. The Appleton-Barnett radio interference experiment thus connects an observed ground-level interference signal to the structure of the ionosphere, explaining how radio communication can reach beyond the direct line of sight.[ref]
