Description

Here, we illustrate the modeling and experimental results for vertical Total Electron Content (TEC) over Mexico during the five year period 2018-2022. The results were obtained for the UCOE GNSS receiver station (geographic coordinates: 19.6°N; 101.68°W ). The calculations were made each two hours during the whole period under considerations. The modeling results were obtained using the "International Reference Ionosphere (IRI)" model, which is an empirical climatological model based on ground and space observations of the ionosphere [Bilitza et al., 2022].
