Real-Time Detection of Tsunami Ionospheric Disturbances with a Stand-Alone GNSS Receiver: A Preliminary Feasibility Demonstration
It is well known that tsunamis can produce gravity waves that propagate up to the ionosphere generating disturbed electron densities in the E and F regions. These ionospheric disturbances can be studied in detail using ionospheric total electron content (TEC) measurements collected by continuously operating ground-based receivers from the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). Here, we pre...
متن کاملDetection and Modeling of Medium-Scale Travelling Ionospheric Disturbances in Iran Region
Ionosphere layer variations are divided into regular and irregular. Regular changes can be considered as daily changes, changes depending on latitude and changes due to solar activity. Travelling Ionospheric Disturbances (TID) is one of the irregular changes of ionosphere which categorized in small, medium and large scales. Medium-scale Travelling Ionospheric Disturbance (MSTID) which are propa...
متن کاملCEDAR-GEM Joint Workshop
Ocean tsunami wavelengths are sufficiently long to produce atmospheric internal gravity waves that propagate to the ionosphere, creating disturbances in ionospheric electron density that travel with the ocean waves below. These traveling ionospheric disturbances (TIDs) can be observed using measurements of integrated ionospheric electron density (also known as total electron content, or TEC) be...
متن کاملTowards Observing Tsunamis in the Ionosphere Using GPS TEC Measurements
Tsunamis have been a significant threat to humans living in coastal regions throughout recorded history. The recent tsunami of September 29, 2009 was a tragic reminder of this fact, as the waves caused over 180 deaths on the islands of Samoa, American Samoa, and Apia in the south Pacific. Recent modeling results and observations have demonstrated that the ionospheric signature of an ocean tsuna...
متن کاملTsunami Detection by Ionospheric Sounding: New Tools for Oceanic Monitoring
After the Great Sumatra Earthquake and the consequent Indian Ocean Tsunami scientific community puts their attention to alternative methods in ocean monitoring to improve the response of the tsunami warning systems. Improvement of classic techniques, as the seismic source estimation (e.g., Ammon et al., 2006) and densification of number of buoys over the oceans (Gonzalez et al., 2005), was supp...
