A review on the numerical simulation of equatorial plasma bubbles toward scintillation evaluation and forecasting

Abstract Equatorial plasma bubbles (EPBs) have been a longstanding and increasingly important subject because they cause severe scintillations in radio waves from Global Navigation Satellite System satellites. The phenomenon was found in the 1930s as irregular ionosonde observations and was termed e...
