Introducing Reflected GNSS TEC Data Into ANCHOR Ionospheric Data Assimilation Model

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract ANCHOR is a novel data assimilation (DA) algorithm developed at the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory to improve ionospheric nowcasting by increasing accuracy and decreasing computational cost. As a parameterized DA model, ANCHOR represents the ionosphere using physical parameters such as the F2 layer peak (Nm $Nm$F2), which characterizes a ...

Assessment of Ionospheric Model Performance Over the US During the Extreme G5 2024 Mother's Day Geomagnetic Storm

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This study evaluates 17 ionospheric models' performance over the Continental United States (CONUS) during the 2024 Mother's Day geomagnetic storm, using ground‐based GNSS Total Electron Content (TEC) and single‐frequency (SF) precise Single Point Positioning (SPP) technique. The storm produced significant positive storm effects during its main

GNSS Radio Occultation: a Review of the Theory, Missions, and Products

open access: yes, 2023
Radio occultation (RO) have been used for probing the atmosphere of other planets since the 1960s. With the development of Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and missions with Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites emerged the possibility of investigations of the Earth's atmosphere with the application of RO-GNSS.

Atmospheric polarimetric effects on GNSS radio occultations: the ROHP-PAZ field campaign [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2015
Abstract. This study describes the first experimental observations showing that hydrometeors induce polarimetric signatures in global navigation satellite system (GNSS) signals. This evidence is relevant to the PAZ low Earth orbiter, which will test the concept and applications of polarimetric GNSS radio occultation (RO) (i.e.

Smartphone Carrier Phase TEC: A Study Across Ionospheric Spatio‐Temporal Scales

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This study explores the potential of dual‐frequency smartphones as accessible tools for citizen science in ionospheric research. While prior work by Smith et al. (2024, https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586‐024‐08072‐x) demonstrated global ionospheric monitoring using aggregated pseudorange Total Electron Content (TEC) data from millions of Android ...

Updates, Examples and Validation of the Global Ionosphere Thermosphere Model

open access: yesSpace Weather, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract This study provides an updated description, example simulations, and validation of the Global Ionosphere Thermosphere Model (GITM). The updates to GITM include using an exothermic semi‐implicit chemistry scheme that no longer requires an altitude dependent heating efficiency; an ionospheric wind‐driven dynamo; improved neutral, ion, and ...

Relatively Intense Daytime GNSS Amplitude Scintillations at Middle Latitude Linked With Multi‐Layered Strong Es Structures

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Intense Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) amplitude scintillations usually occur in nighttime at low latitudes due to ionospheric plasma bubble irregularities. During daytime at middle latitudes, previous studies found that the sporadic E (Es) layer could lead to GNSS amplitude scintillations, which however, is relatively weak, for ...
