Session title: Ionospheric Natural Hazard Detection Using GNSS Measurements

Description:

Natural hazards have been significant threats to society. GNSS have become primary sensors to measure the effects of natural hazards. GPS can be used to compute ionospheric TEC to measure and monitor ionospheric effects caused by e.g., earthquakes, tsunamis, meteors or nuclear explosions. We solicit observational and modeling contributions to address practical benefits that can be realized in monitoring natural hazards using real-time and post-processed ground-based and space-borne GPS observations as a tool. It is expected that ionospheric monitoring of TEC perturbations might become an integral part of natural hazards warning systems that could potentially save thousands of human lives and help reduce economic damages.
