A Statistical Comparison of Zonal Mean and Tidal Signatures in FORMOSAT-3/COSMIC and Ground-Based GPS TECs

Atmospheric tidal components in the ionosphere can reflect either the in-situ generated quiet-time variation in the ionosphere, or vertically propagating tidal components generated through coupling to lower or middle atmosphere phenomena. Frequency-wavenumber tidal decomposition is a valuable tool f...
