摘要: We present a steady state model of the midlatitude nighttime sodium layer which is comprehensive in sense that it includes deposition metal, diffusion, and kinetics as well seasonal variations atmosphere. The used to compute parameters nightglow. behavior reproduces observed layer. find main contributor variation temperature dependence reaction recycling atomic from NaHCO 3 . Seasonal atmospheric minor species including ozone are secondary effects at best. relative contributions all factors compared.
