Ionospheric slab thickness – analysis, modelling and monitoring
A review of the climatological and storm-time behaviour of the ionospheric slab thickness is presented based on long-time observations at a European mid-latitude site, Dourbes (50.1°N, 04.6°E), and on published results from other studies. An operational electron density and slab thickness monitoring system, established to provide real-time characterisation of the local ionospheric dynamics, is ...
متن کاملVariation of ionospheric slab thickness over South Africa
Ionospheric slab thickness is defined as the ratio of TEC to maximum electron density of the F-region (NmF2), proportional to the square of the F2-layer critical frequency (foF2). It is an important parameter in that it is linearly correlated with scale height of the ionosphere, which is related to electron density profile. It also reflects variation of the neutral temperature. Therefore, ionos...
متن کاملSolar flare signatures of the ionospheric GPS total electron content
6 [1] In this study, ionospheric solar flare effects on the total electron content (TEC) and 7 associated time rate of change (rTEC) derived from ground-based global positioning 8 system (GPS) receivers in the midday region are examined. The occurrence times and 9 locations of 11 solar flares are isolated from the 1–8 Å X-ray radiations of the 10 geosynchronous operational environmental satelli...
متن کاملTotal Ionospheric Electron Content Calibration Using SERIES GPS Satellite Data
This article describes the current status of the Deep Space Network advanced systems research into ionospheric calibration techniques, based on Global Positioning System (GPS) data. A GPS-based calibration system is planned to replace the currently used Faraday rotation method by 1989. The SERIES receiver system used in this research determines the differential group delay of signals transmitte...
