The total electron content from InSAR and GNSS: a midlatitude study

The total Electron Content (TEC) measured from the interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) and from a dense network of global navigation satellite system (GNSS) receivers are used to assess the capability of InSAR to retrieve ionospheric information, when the tropospheric contribution to the interpherometric phase is reasonably negligible. With this aim , we select three night-time case studies over Italy and investigate the correlation between TEC from advanced land observing satellite-phased array type L-band synthetic aperture radar (ALOS-PALSAR).
