Electron and ion temperatures, derived from backscatter spectra, are examined during the current rising phase of solar activity. There is a strong positive correlation between the 10·7 cm-solar radio flux and night-time ion and electron temperatures, the temperature increase being about 3·4°K for each unit increase of 1 × 10-22 W/m2 per c/s bandwidth in , the 27-day average 10·7 cm-solar flux. The noontime ion temperature at and below 400 km shows an equally strong correlation with the 10·7 cm-flux, the temperature increase being about 4·5°K for each unit increase of . Any correlation of the noontime electron temperature, and the noontime ion temperature for heights above 400 km, with the 10·7 cm-solar flux, if present, is masked by the more predominant effect associated with the wide day-to-day electron density variations.
