Global Warming and Mass Extinctions Associated With Large Igneous Province Volcanism
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Improving the Vertical Modeling of Tropospheric Delay
AbstractAccurate tropospheric delays from Numerical Weather Models (NWM) are an important input to space geodetic techniques, especially for precise real‐time Global Navigation Satellite Systems, which are indispensable to earthquake and tsunami early warning systems as well as weather forecasting.

A Two-step Estimation Method of Troposphere Delay with Consideration of Mapping Function Errors [PDF]
Mapping function errors are usually not taken into consideration, when space geodetic data observed by VLBI, GNSS and some other techniques are utilized to estimate troposphere delay, which could, however, probably bring non-ignorable errors to solutions.

Tropospheric delay in microwave propagation in Nigeria [PDF]
Satellite communication systems suffer from the systematic error of tropospheric delay. Accurate estimation of this delay is essential for communication budget and planning. This study investigates the tropospheric delay in three Nigeria cities: Abuja, Lagos, Port-Harcourt using two different models (Saastominen and Hopfield).

Tropospheric Delay Calibrations for VERA [PDF]
Abstract We present techniques for the tropospheric delay calibration, which is the key to increasing the accuracy of the phase-referencing astrometry with Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI). We study three methods, and make a comparison of these methods to discuss the accuracy in calibration.

Zenith Wet Delay (ZWD) Seasonal Correlation with Rainfall in Cikapundung River Discharge, North Bandung Region, Indonesia [PDF]
In a GPS survey study, the biases produced by the ionosphere and troposphere layers are known as ionospheric biases and troposphere bias. The distance deviation due to the slowing travel time of GPS signals in troposphere is commonly referred to as ...

Tropospheric Delay Model Based on VMF and ERA5 Reanalysis Data
The global tropospheric zenith delay grid products of VMF1 and VMF3 (Vienna mapping functions) with different resolutions are used to calculate the tropospheric zenith delay of eight IGS (International GNSS Service) stations in China, and the accuracy of

USING GENERATIVE ADVERSARIAL NETWORKS FOR EXTRACTION OF INSAR SIGNALS FROM LARGE-SCALE SENTINEL-1 INTERFEROGRAMS BY IMPROVING TROPOSPHERIC NOISE CORRECTION [PDF]
Spatiotemporal variations of pressure, temperature, water vapour content in the atmosphere lead to significant delays in interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) measurements of deformations in the ground.

Tropospheric Delay Estimation for Pseudolite Positioning [PDF]
Pseudolites, ground-based GPS signal transmitters, can significantly enhance the GPS satellite geometry or can even be an independent positioning system. However, as pseudolites are very close to the receivers, error effects are different from the traditional GPS and should be considered and modeled in a different way.

Impact of Tropospheric Delay Gradients on Total Tropospheric Delay and Precise Point Positioning
GPS signals are electromagnetic waves that are affected by the Earth’s atmosphere. The Earth’s atmosphere can be categorized, according to its effect on GPS signals, into the ionosphere (ionospheric delay) and neutral atmosphere (tropospheric delay).
