Scientific paper

Nighttime observations of mesospheric metal atom layers have been performed at the Arecibo Observatory using lidar for nearly a decade. A statistical analysis of parameters related to sporadic potassium and iron atom layers over the Arecibo Observatory was performed. Parameters, such as average peak height, average thickness, rise and fall times, seasonal variation, as well as their correlation with other geophysical parameters, were analyzed for each metal species over the Arecibo Observatory. The goal of this work is to achieve a better understanding of the chemical and dynamical processes that govern the metal layers.
