Scientific paper

Nitric oxide (NO) concentrations have been determined from the analysis of positive ion composition data obtained by AFGL for eclipse and post-eclipse conditions near Red Lake, Canada. Values of about 300 million/cu cm for 105-110 km and about 30 million/cu cm for 90 km have been established. A residual ion-pair production rate of about 50/cu cm per sec is estimated for eclipse totality at 110 km. A factor of two uncertainty is thought to be appropriate for all deduced values. The calculated NO concentrations appear to be within the range of typical variations for this season (late winter) and latitude (51 deg N).
