We show that if we add any number of Cohen reals to the ground model then, in the generic extension, a locally compact scattered space has at most levels of size ω. We also give a complete ZFC characterization of the cardinal sequences of regular scattered spaces. Although the classes of regular and of 0-dimensional scattered spaces are different, we prove that they have the same cardinal sequences.
