Emissions in the 300-to-900-Å wavelength range near the dayside oval were observed on April 5, 1979, over the south pole by EUV spectrometer on board the STP78-1 satellite. The spectra, obtained from 600 km, near local noon, are dominated by spectral lines of singly ionized atomic oxygen. Most prominent features in this passband are O II 538-to-539, 617-, and O II 834-Å emission lines, all of which have intensities exceeding 100 R. Several weak O II and N II features are present in the spectrum with intensities ranging from 10 to 60 R. The brightest spectral feature is O II 834 Å, which was recorded with an intensity exceeding 1 kR.
