Experimental set up used at Agra for
the measurement of TEC

Data and analysis procedure to obtained daily
diurnal curves of TEC data The TEC measurements are being carried out through combined frequencies (L1/L2)
pseudorange and carrier phase measurements. The GSV4004B measures TECusing pseudorange measurements on the L1 and L2 frequencies.
The receiver internal biases are also taken care of prior to final TEC calculations. Thiscan be seen in the formula given below;
TEC = [9.483*(PR L2-PR L1 - C/A-P, PRN ) + TEC RX + TEC CAL] TECU
where PR L2 is the L2 pseudo-range in meters, PR L1 is the L1 pseudo-range inmeters, C/A-P, PRN is the input bias between SV C/A- and P-code chiptransition in meters. TEC RX is the TEC result due to internal receiver L1/L2delay and TEC CAL is the user defined TEC offset.

Obtained vaules of TEC are slant TEC which are converted into vertical TEC (VTEC) usingexpression given by Mannucci et al. 1993.
where R E is the mean radius of the earth in km, h S , the ionosphere (effective)height above the earths surface, z, the zenith angle and E, the elevation anglein degrees. The effective ionospheric height of 350 km is used fordetermination of IPP locations.
Continued.
To avoid the effect of multipath, troposcatterand water vapor at low elevation angles valuesof TEC are taken at higher elevation angles (>50 0).

To detect anomalous variations in TEC data we applied the similar statisticalprocedures as adopted by earlier workers from Taiwan, Japan, etc. (Prof. Liu,Prof. Hayakawa, Prof. Hattori..)
15 days backward running mean (m) and running standard deviation
around mean (m2 )* The variation of VTEC is plotted between the curves of m 2 .
The values of VTEC crossing m 2 curves are said to be abnormal.

Quarti le-based statistical method
* At first a median (M) of every successive 15 days of TEC is computed to find the deviation on16 th day.
* Two quartiles , first (or lower) and third (or upper) are calculated which are denoted by LQ and UQrespectively. It has been shown by earlier workers (Klotz and Johnson, 1983; Liu et al., 2009) thatunder the assumption of a normal distribution with mean (m) and standard deviation ( ) for GPSTEC, the expected values of M and LQ or UQ are m and 1.34 respectively.
Finally , the lower bound (LB) and upper bound (UB) are calculated as;
LB=M - 1.5 (M - LQ),
UB= M + 1.5 (UQ-M).
The values of TEC cross ing these LB and UB are detected as abnormal variationin TEC data .

1. The GPS based TEC measurements are analyzed for the period of 30 months from 01
January, 2009 to 30 June, 2011 in the light of magnetic storms and earthquakes. Thelarge magnitude earthquakes ( M 5.5) which occurred within an epicentral distance of2000 km from the observing station Agra are considered for this study.
2. Anomalous variations in TEC, in the form of enhancements and depletions, areobserved in almost all the cases of earthquakes examined with precursory period lyingbetween 0 and 10 days.
3. The GPS-TEC data obtained at Agra station are also compared with global ionosphericmaps (GIMs) of TEC and a very good correlation is found between the two. .
4. The GPS-TEC data and GIM TEC data at five different locations are analysedcorresponding to the Wenchuan earthquake (M=7.9) occurred on 12 May, 2008 inChina region. The anomalies in TEC data are investigated by using quartile basedstatistical method. It has been found that TEC data obtained at Agra and other locationsshow anomalous depletions 02 to 13 days before and anomalous enhancements 03 to10 days prior to the occurrence of earthquake. It has also been found that the level ofanomalies are more distinct near the epicenter than at the Agra station and theyappeared earlier at the location near the epicenter than other locations.
3. Since to investigate the seismic effects on TEC data the data on disturebed days areomitted hence the observed anomalies in TEC data may be due to the considered
seismic events .
