Satellite measurements of the global mesospheric sodium layer

Optimal estimation theory is used to retrieve the absolute Na density profiles in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere from limb-scanning measurements of the Na radiance at 589 nm in the dayglow. Two years of observations (2003 and 2004), recorded by the OSIRIS spectrometer on the Odin satellite, have been analysed to yield the seasonal and latitudinal variation of the Na layer column abundance, p...

A new time-resolved model of the mesospheric Na layer

Introduction Conclusions References Tables Figures Back Close Abstract Introduction Conclusions References Tables Figures Back Close Abstract A time-resolved model of the Na layer in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere region is described, where the continuity equations for the major sodium species Na, Na + and NaHCO 3 are solved explicity, and the other short-lived species are treated in steady-...

A time-resolved model of the mesospheric Na layer: constraints on the meteor input function

A time-resolved model of the Na layer in the mesosphere/lower thermosphere region is described, where the continuity equations for the major sodium species Na, Na and NaHCO3 are solved explicity, and the other shortlived species are treated in steady-state. It is shown that the diurnal variation of the Na layer can only be modelled satisfactorily if sodium species are permanently removed below ...

The effects of Na & Mg adsorption on the electrical properties of SiCNTs: A DFT study

In the present study we focused on the electronic and structural properties of Na and Mg adsorption on the surface of the (6, 6) armchair SiCNTs. The adsorption energy (Eads), band gap energy (Eg), partial density of state (PDOS), chemical potential (μ), global hardness (η), electrophilicity index (ω), global softness (S), work function values (φ) and work function change (Δφ) are calculated by...

The near‐global mesospheric potassium layer: Observations and modeling

The meteoric metal layers act as unique tracers of chemistry and dynamics in the upper atmosphere. Existing lidar studies from a few locations show that K exhibits a semiannual seasonality (winter and summer maxima), quite unlike the annual seasonality (winter maximum and summer minimum) seen with Na and Fe. This work uses spaceborne observations made with the Optical Spectrograph and InfraRed ...
