Ion composition at mesospheric altitudes was measured at high-latitude (Kiruna, Sweden) and mid-latitude (Wallops Island, Virginia) sites under summer daytime conditions, using two sets of rocket measurements both made with pumped quadrupole ion mass spectrometers. Cluster ions of hydronium and of nitric oxide were observed at midlatitudes, while, in addition to these cluster ions, a preponderance of heavy ions between 90 and 145 amu, was observed at high latitudes. These latter results may suggest the presence of metallic particles and ions which form hydrated cluster ions within the noctilucent cloud region.
