Short summary
The paper investigates the occurrence of polar mesosphere summer echoes (PMSEs) over a solar cycle. Besides the statistical study of the layered PMSE occurrence ratio, the authors propose a method to deal with the discontinuous EISCAT radar measurements. The method makes it easier to establish a relationship between the layered PMSEs and solar and geomagnetic activities. The paper presents a relatively large data set that brings results. It can be recommended in future research on the PMSEs.
