Brief Description (Abstract):

Observations of Total Electron Content (TEC) of the ionosphere were carried out at the Indian station MAITRI, Antarctica from Jan. 12, 1998 to Feb. 6, 1998 during the 17th Indian Scientific Expedition to Antarctica. For this purpose signals from Global Positioning System (GPS) satellites were monitored. Diurnal range in variation of TEC is found to be much less than that at low latitudes. Signatures of large scale disturbances are seen superposed on the Diurnal variation of TEC.

Status: Completed

Purpose: Global Positioning System satellite observations were recorded at the Indian station MAITRI, in Antarctica from Jan. 12, 1998 to Feb. 6, 1998 during the 17th Indian Scientific Expedition to Antarctica.
