Abstract

The methods described in Part 1 are used to investigate the electric currents generated in the ionosphere by the important solar diurnal and semidiurnal tidal modes. The currents produced by the solar diurnal (1,3), (1,-1), and (1,-3) modes and the solar semidiurnal (2,2) and (2,4) modes are calculated. The solar diurnal (1,3) mode, which is prominent in the E region, produces very little current. The fundamental solar diurnal mode, the (1,-1) mode, generates currents that resemble the S q current pattern.
