Formation of an additional density peak in the bottom side of the sodium layer associated with the passage of multiple mesospheric frontal systems
<p>We present a detailed investigation of the formation of an additional sodium density peak at altitudes of 79–85 km below the main peak of the sodium layer based on sodium lidar and airglow imager measurements made at Ramfjordmoen near Tromsø, Norway, on the night of 19 December 2014. The ai...
