Abstract

Using GPS-TEC (Total Electron Content) Sequences processed by a second-order operator and ROTI (Standard deviation of TEC change rate), the effects of tropical cyclones with different intensities landing in Guangdong Province on ionospheric TEC are analyzed. The analysis shows that during the tropical depression ROKE, typhoon PAKHAR and violent typhoon MANGKHUT landing in Guangdong Province, ROTI values are less than 0.5 \( TEC.min^{ - 1} \), and no obvious ionospheric disturbances are detected. It can be interpreted by the effect of terrain and severe convective weather on acoustic gravity waves. Severe convective weather and the dramatic undulating terrain provide favorable conditions for the development of acoustic gravity waves. However, the central and southern of Guangdong Province has relatively flat terrain, which cannot meet ideal conditions for the development of acoustic gravity waves.
