“…A dense GPS array is a good 2‐D monitoring tool for the ionosphere. By using a dense GPS array, medium‐scale traveling ionospheric disturbances [e.g., Saito et al ., ], storm enhanced density [e.g., Foster et al ., ], earthquake‐related disturbances [e.g., Ducic et al ., ; Heki and Ping , ; Kakinami et al ., ], tsunami‐related disturbances [e.g., Rolland et al ., ; Kakinami et al ., ], and volcano‐explosion‐related disturbances [e.g., Dautermann et al ., ] have been revealed.
