Scientific paper

A simplified D-region model consisting of O2(+), NO(+), and their respective cluster ions is used to reproduce the available rocket data on positive-ion relative composition and effective clustering rates for the height range 70-90 km. The results of this analysis for a winter anomalous day (Sardinia, 40 deg N) are in good agreement with the presently known ideas on NO densities, O2(+) production rates, mesospheric temperature, negative ion-to-electron density ratio, and effective loss coefficient for electrons. Mesospheric nitric oxide density and temperature profiles from this study are in excellent agreement with the findings of Zbinden et al. (1975) and Hidalgo (1977) for the anomalous day at Sardinia.
