We present a detailed investigation of the formation of a secondary sodium layer at altitudes of 79–85 km below the main sodium layer based on sodium lidar and airglow imager measurements made at Ramfjordmoen near Tromsø, Norway on the night of 19 December 2014. The airglow imager observations of OH...
