Detection of VLF Attenuation in the Earth‐Ionosphere Waveguide Caused by X‐Class Solar Flares Using aGlobal Lightning Location Network

Abstract Solar flares, energetic particles, and Earth‐impacting coronal mass ejections enhance ionization in the lower ionosphere, inhibiting radio wave propagation in the Earth‐ionosphere waveguide (EIWG). This enhanced ionization is observed locally by ionosondes and GPS/GNSS receivers, but spatia...
