Investigation on Horizontal and Vertical Traveling Ionospheric Disturbances Propagation in Global‐Scale Using GNSS and Multi‐LEO Satellites by Xiaodong Ren, Dengkui Mei, Hang Liu, Xiaohong Zhang

“…However, these observations primarily cover land area, thus causing a challenging problem of interpreting the global propagating characteristics of large‐scale TIDs (LSTIDs), especially over the ocean area. Meanwhile, Total Electron Content (TEC) values derived from ground‐based GNSS signals propagating through the whole ionosphere have an integral character, and we were unable to obtain the propagation and dissipation of TIDs in the vertical direction using solely ground‐based GNSS TEC data. …”
