Table 3:

Sensitivity of $\psi $ to a 1% perturbation in some simulation parameters under standard conditions.

Name of perturbed variable 		Symbol $\psi $  change (%)
Mesospheric laser irradiance I   0.025
Geomagnetic field in mesosphere B -0.33
Average mesospheric temperature $T_{\rm Na}$ -0.48
Beam atom exchange rate $\gamma_{\rm ex}$   0.0025
Weighted v.c.c.$^\ast$ rate $\gamma_{\rm vcc}$   0.15
Weighted spin-exchange rate at $T_{\rm Na}$ $\gamma_{S}$   0.013
Recoil frequency (50 kHz)   -0.24

Notes.  $^{(\ast)}$ v.c.c. = velocity-changing collision.
