Description

Dataset corresponding to the associated publication, "A Missing Piece of the E-Region Puzzle: The Need for High-Resolution Photoionization Cross Sections and Solar Irradiance in Models."  The dataset includes high-resolution photoionization and photoabsorption cross section for O and N2 as well as high-resolution solar spectrum.  Photoionization rates from model runs obtained from AURIC and the Meier photoionization code are also included.  Please refer to the readme for information on the data structure.
