The daytime E-F1 region ionosphere at mid-latitudes was studied using a photochemical equilibrium daytime model which includes the latest photoionization and photoabsorption cross sections, EUV fluxes in 37 wavelength bands, and all reactions believed to be important in this region. The model results are compared with observed critical frequency of the E region for two stations (at Boulder, Colorado, and at Wallops Island, Virginia) at noon over a full solar cycle and with incoherent scatter radar N(e) observations at 180 km for a variety of seasons and solar-geophysical conditions. When combined, these comparisons give information about EUV fluxes and neutral composition. The results were found to be consistent with observed incoherent scatter profiles as well as with the international reference ionosphere ion-composition model and the incoherent scatter-radar-based model of Oliver (1979).
