Lidar observations of the Fe layer and temperatures in the polar mesopause region

Lidar observations of the mesospheric Fe layer and temperatures have been performed at Davis, Antarctica and ALOMAR, Norway. Large-scale transport is the primary cause of the seasonal variation of the Fe layer. An uptake of metal atoms on ice particles, as well as temperature-dependent chemistry, pl...
