Total Electron Content (TEC) within the ionosphere, a key parameter for evaluating the influence of ionospheric variations on GPS signal accuracy. These variations, influenced by temporal, geographic, and solar conditions, can cause notable positioning errors, emphasizing the need for precise monitoring and detailed analysis to improve the reliability of GPS-enabled services. TEC values are estimated using dual-frequency GPS receiver measurements that are stored as Receiver INdependent EXchange Format (RINEX) records by using IONOLAB-STEC method. This method, which provides updates every 30 s, incorporates corrections for ionospheric and tropospheric delays, along with timing inaccuracies from satellites and receivers, enhancing the accuracy of GPS positioning. Current Global Ionospheric Maps (GIM) suffer from inadequate temporal and spatial resolution. This research presents an advanced interpolation-based approach for generating high-resolution TEC maps, with a particular emphasis on a preprocessing step applied to the STEC values to reduce the influence of outliers and enhance data quality. This approach allows for the generation of STEC maps with a spatial resolution of 0.48° and a temporal resolution of 5 min, which corresponds to the assumed duration of the ionosphere’s wide-sense stationary period on disturbed days. Moreover, the output maps produced by the proposed method are capable of capturing finer-scale variations in the ionospheric structure, as the STEC data utilized in this study are considered to be closer to raw measurements compared to JPL-TEC and TEC estimates. Our findings highlight the superior performance of the STEC mapping technique over traditional TEC mapping methods, marking a significant advancement in geospatial applications. This methodological innovation promises to enhance GPS reliability and precision across various high-stakes fields, setting a new standard for ionospheric monitoring and supporting advancements in navigation technology and space weather prediction.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50850,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Space Research","volume":"78 1","pages":"Pages 374-392"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148528300","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding the ionospheric structure is crucial for enhancing the performance of these systems. Total Electron Content (TEC) is a key parameter for characterizing the ionospheric structure. TEC can typically be estimated at only a limited number of spatial points for most parts of the globe. Consequently, accurate, reliable, and robust TEC mapping/interpolation methods are required. In this study, a basis expansion algorithm is proposed to represent the underlying physics of TEC using singular value decomposition (SVD) for 2-D reconstruction. Extracting the significant singular values corresponding to signal subspace allows a reduced number of contributing basis vectors. Utilizing the TEC estimated from 32% of the grid, the least squares optimization based algorithm allows reconstruction in computationally efficient closed form. For the preparation of Model Matrices, interpolated Global Ionospheric Maps (GIM) can be utilized for user defined space–time resolution for the two-dimensional (2-D) reconstruction of TEC even in regions where GPS receivers are either non-existent or sparse such as over oceans and deserts. In this study, an example is provided for reconstruction of TEC for European region where Model Matrices are generated considering diverse solar activity levels, hourly-monthly trend variations, and geomagnetic indices. We provide examples of reconstruction over a wide range of geomagnetic activity from 2000 to 2024, covering almost two solar cycles.

This study presents a novel two-stage hybrid machine learning framework for detecting TEC-based earthquake precursors, validated using the 6 February 2023 Türkiye earthquake sequence. The methodology integrates deep learning forecasting models with ensemble classification techniques to enable robust detection of potential anomalies associated with earthquakes. In the first stage, next-day TEC values are forecasted using three recurrent neural network architectures: Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Gated Recurrent Unit (GRU), and Recurrent Neural Network (RNN). We tested the framework using GNSS-derived TEC data from 10 TNPGN-Active stations within 500 km of the earthquake epicenters. The results show no single architecture consistently outperforms others across all stations. LSTM achieved the highest R<sup>2</sup> values in 6 out of 10 stations, with the best performance recorded at the ANTE station (R<sup>2</sup> = 0.9280, MSE = 17.6107, RMSE = 4.1965, MAE = 3.1000, and MAPE = 9.12 %).

Irregularity generations are more frequent over high latitudes during the main and recovery phases of storms due to the formation of polar patches related to particle precipitation. From the overall analysis, the ROTI occurrence rate shows an increasing pattern with increasing storm intensity levels over IISC, but decreases during highly disturbed geomagnetic conditions (superstorms).

We used the α-Chapman function with five parameters to describe each profile, including the peak density of the F2 layer (<em>NmF2</em>), the corresponding altitude of the peak (<em>hmF2</em>), scale height at F2 peak height (<em>H</em><sub>0</sub>), the scale height gradients <em>α</em><sub>1</sub> (above and equals <em>hmF2</em>) and <em>α</em><sub>2</sub> (below <em>hmF2</em>).

By combining these five sub-models, we constructed this DLIM for predicting the 3-D distributions of electron density. The model shows excellent agreement with observations from COSMIC-1 as well as the independent dataset from COSMIC-2. It also performances well in capturing the ionospheric climatology, such as solar activity dependence, local time variation, and global pattern, e.g., the equatorial ionization anomaly (EIA) and longitudinal four-wave patterns.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":50850,"journal":{"name":"Advances in Space Research","volume":"78 1","pages":"Pages 344-360"},"PeriodicalIF":3.2,"publicationDate":"2026-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"148528296","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
