. A sporadic-E (Es) layer is generally associated with a thin-layeredstructure present in the lower ionosphere, mostly consisting of metallicions. This metallic ion layer is formed when meteors burn in the upperatmosphere, resulting in the deposition of free metal atoms and ions. Many studies have attributed the presence of the Es layer to the metallicion layer, specifically when the layer is observed during the nighttime.Using data from a network of meteor monitoring towers and a collocateddigital ionosonde radar near the Arabian Peninsula, in this paper, we report our observations of Es layer occurrences together with the meteorcount. The trend of monthly averages of Es layer intensity shows a maximumin late spring and early summer months and a minimum in winter months, whereas the meteor counts were highest in winter months and lowest in springand early summer months. This shows that the presence of the Es layer andthe meteor counts have no correlation in time, both diurnally andseasonally. This leads us to conclude that the presence of meteors is notthe main cause of the presence of the Es layer over the Arabian Peninsula.
