Scientific paper

Time-dependent solutions of the diffusion and continuity equations for oxygen-hydrogen and sodium constituents are used to examine the characteristics of the height distribution of sodium atoms. Account is taken of recent experimental data on relevant chemical and photochemical processes. Particular attention is paid to the processes which determine the peak altitude of the layer, the slope of the height distribution above the peak, and the diurnal variation of the layer, as revealed by measurements using various techniques.
