VTEC BEHAVIUOR IN THE HIGH LATITUDE REGION DURING HIGH (PUBLICATION).pdf Download (343kB) |
Abstract
The behaviour of vertical total electron content (VTEC) obtained, from installed Global Positioning System (GPS) during high solar activity year 2001 over three (3) stations of the high latitude region, is reported. The considered stations are KELY, NRIL and YAKT. Median, lower and upper quartiles are used to specify variability, because they are less affected by large deviations that can occur during magnetic storms. The results show that the VTEC values corresponding to December solstice are in most cases greater than those of equinox; least in June solstice and that the highest VTEC values were observed at YAKT. In addition, for most of the considered stations, the variability observed during winter solstice is greater than that observed during equinoxes. The highest VTEC value is observed at YAKT and highest variability occurred at NRIL in December solstice.
