Scientific paper

Data on ion composition and electron densities from the rocket measurements made during the total solar eclipse at Cassino, Brazil, are analyzed numerically using the ion chemistry models for the D and E regions. Solutions of the continuity equations applicable to the individual ionic species are carried out under equilibrium conditions to determine the ion production rates that can best represent the rocket measurements of the ion composition and electron density made to represent the full sun conditions. The ion production rates derived are inserted in a set of time dependent solutions of the continuity equations to predict the ion density height distribution during the eclipse corresponding to the available rocket measurements. A comparison between the calculated results and the observations during the totality is made to determine the residual ion production rates in the lower ionosphere, and the results are discussed in the light of the previous estimates of the ion production rates based on the nighttime occurrence of blanketing type Es in the anomaly region.
