Atmospheric Rivers in Africa Observed with GNSS-RO and Reanalysis Data
Atmospheric Rivers (ARs) transport significant amounts of moisture and cause extreme precipitation events, yet their behavior over Africa is not well understood. This study addresses this gap by analyzing the occurrence, seasonal variability, and spatial

Global GNSS-RO Electron Density in the Lower Ionosphere [PDF]
Lack of instrument sensitivity to low electron density (Ne) concentration makes it difficult to measure sharp Ne vertical gradients (four orders of magnitude over 30 km) in the D/E-region. A robust algorithm is developed to retrieve global D/E-region Ne from the high-rate GNSS radio occultation (RO) data, to improve spatiotemporal coverage using recent

The 2021 La Palma volcanic eruption and its impact on ionospheric scintillation as measured from GNSS reference stations, GNSS-R and GNSS-RO [PDF]
Abstract. Ionospheric disturbances induced by seismic activity have been studied in recent years by many authors, showing an impact both before and after the occurrence of earthquakes. In this study, the ionospheric scintillation produced by the 2021 La Palma volcano eruption is analyzed.

Ionospheric Data Fusion With GNSS, GNSS‐RO and Satellite Altimetry Based on Machine Learning
Global Ionospheric Maps (GIMs) are essential in Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) applications, particularly for correcting ionospheric delays in single‐frequency positioning. GIMs are mainly derived from dual‐frequency GNSS observations, but the

Stability of CubeSat Clocks and Their Impacts on GNSS Radio Occultation [PDF]
Global Navigation Satellite Systems’ radio occultation (GNSS-RO) provides the upper troposphere-lower stratosphere (UTLS) vertical atmospheric profiles that are complementing radiosonde and reanalysis data. Such data are employed in the numerical weather

How does assimilating a large commercial GNSS RO dataset impact HAFS hurricane forecasts? An evaluation in support of the ROMEX experiment [PDF]
While Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) radio occultation (RO) data assimilation improves tropical cyclone (TC) intensity forecasts, the scaling of these impacts with RO observation volume remains unclear.

Can the Spire GNSS-RO CubeSats Constellation Observe Earth's Gravity Field?
Dual-frequency GNSS data from onboard Precise Orbit Determination (POD) antennas has emerged as a promising tool for investigating the time-variable components of Earth's gravity field. Over the past two decades, POD antennas onboard Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellites have significantly advanced the study of the long-wavelength components of Earth's ...
