Sturrock et al. (1990) have proposed that a distribution of microflares produces the solar coronal and transition-region emission. This paper presents computed EUV and X-ray emission spectra from that distribution, including the effects of time-dependent ionization. The overall agreement of the predicted spectrum with observations is fairly good, although the predicted emission from the upper transition region is high by a factor of 2. Time-dependent ionization greatly enhances the He II 304-A line, improving the agreement with observation compared with ionization equilibrium models. The predicted effects on temperature-sensitive line ratios of other ions cannot yet be tested against observations due to uncertainties in instrumental calibration and atomic rates.
