Ground-Based GNSS for Ionospheric Monitoring and Disaster Prediction

Explore the use of Ground-Based GNSS for monitoring TEC variations, irregularities, geomagnetic storms, and pre-earthquake anomalies. Learn how it detects Space Seismometer signals and predicts events like Solar Flares. Discover the impact of solar eclipses and how GNSS helps in observing ionospheric signatures of earthquakes. Conclusion: GNSS sites globally offer continuous ionospheric monitoring.

  31. The two arrival times have good agreements accordingly.

  32. Result • It is found that the tsunami waves triggered atmospheric waves near the sea surface, which then traveled upward with an average velocity of about 730m/s into the ionosphere and significantly disturbed the GPS TEC (or ionospheric electron density) within it. • The giant iononamis which have maximum heights of about 10 km, periods of 10-20 minutes, and horizontal wavelengths of about 100-200 km, travel away from the epicenter with an average horizontal speed of about 700 km/hr.

  33. Conclusion • There are worldwide about thousands of ground-based GNSS sites, which provide an excellent chance to continuously monitor ionosphere.
