Ground Based GPS for Meteorology in COSMIC

The Ground Based GPS program advances and supports GPS research in the Earth sciences. Its GPS Research Group, after pioneering GPS sensing of the atmosphere from the ground and space, is now advancing real time GPS sensing of tropospheric and ionospheric structure. Guided by a consortium of research institutions using GPS satellites for precise surveying and other applications, the program offers support to scientific investigators. Support includes equipment, training, logistics, field support, technical support, data analysis and archiving. Portable GPS equipment and emerging worldwide GPS networks are being used by supported investigators for earthquake, volcano, polar ice dynamics, weather and climate research.
