Journal ArticleDOI
Global Assimilation of Ionospheric Measurements (GAIM)
Robert W. Schunk,Ludger Scherliess,Jan Josef Sojka,Donald C. Thompson,David N. Anderson,Mihail Codrescu,C. F. Minter,Tim Fuller-Rowell,Roderick A. Heelis,Marc R. Hairston,Bruce M. Howe +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors construct a real-time data assimilation model for the ionosphere-plasmasphere system that will provide reliable specifications and forecasts, and validate the model for a wide range of geophysical conditions including different solar cycle, seasonal, storm and substorm conditions.

Journal ArticleDOI
US-TEC: A new data assimilation product from the Space Environment Center characterizing the ionospheric total electron content using real-time GPS data
Tim Fuller-Rowell,Eduardo A. Araujo-Pradere,C. F. Minter,Mihail Codrescu,Paul Spencer,Doug Robertson,Abram R. Jacobson +6 more
TL;DR: Validation of US-TEC indicates an accuracy of the line-of-sight electron content of between 2 and 3 TEC units, equivalent to less than 50 cm signal delay at L1 frequencies, which promises value for GPS users.
Journal ArticleDOI
A comprehensive evaluation of the errors inherent in the use of a two‐dimensional shell for modeling the ionosphere
Dru A. Smith,Eduardo A. Araujo-Pradere,Eduardo A. Araujo-Pradere,C. F. Minter,C. F. Minter,Tim Fuller-Rowell,Tim Fuller-Rowell +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors quantify all geometric and numerical errors made through the use of a shell model and conclude that the highest levels of accuracy require the total electron content of the ionosphere be modeled three-dimensionalally.
Journal ArticleDOI
Differential validation of the US-TEC model
TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a validation and accuracy assessment of the total electron content (TEC) from US-TEC, a new product presented by the Space Environment Center over the contiguous United States (CONUS).
