Abstract:Every year the government and people suffer from the cost of damages caused by natural disasters such as hurricanes and oods. Thanks to Global Positioning System (GPS) permanent station data, today it is possible to determine the amount of Water Vapor (WV) very accurately and reliably. GPS signals pass through different layers of the atmosphere, such as the ionosphere and troposphere, and therefore they are delayed. A signi cant part of the delay is due to the troposphere, which is one of the serious sources o… Show more
