Abstract: | We present a case study of ionospheric wave activity during solar terminator crossing using GPS TEC measurements. As a basic
tool, the spatial gradient of total electron content (TEC) has been used. We tested with positive result the hypothesis on
anisotropic response to assumed one-dimensional solar terminator forcing. The approximate drift velocity of irregularities
has been computed. The wavelet analysis gave an interesting insight into variable frequency content of TEC gradient time series.
We also proposed a filtering with respect to spatial scale allowing for resolving the spatio-temporal ambiguity. |
