Solar tidal effects are sought in ionospheric data from representative latitudes. They are found in the E, F1 and F2 regions. For the F2 region the seasonal semi-diurnal harmonics arising from P32 are comparable with those from P22. The amplitudes and phases of these harmonics are determined, and they are used to interpret the global distribution of F2 ionization. Evidence is found that the lunar magnetic variation is produced mainly by currents in the D region of the ionosphere, but is opposed by the corresponding currents in the E and F1 regions. This finding is submitted to an independent test, using McNish's evidence of the effects of solar flares on the magnetic variation.
