Implications of GNSS-Inferred Tropopause Altitude Associated with Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes

Implications of GNSS-Inferred Tropopause Altitude Associated with Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes

The thermal structure of the environmental atmosphere associated with Terrestrial Gamma-ray Flashes (TGFs) is investigated with the combined observations from several detectors (FERMI, RHESSI, and Insight-HXMT) and GNSS-RO (SAC-C, COSMIC, GRACE, TerraSAR-X, and MetOp-A). The geographic distributions...
