| Özet |
| This study presents a comprehensive spatio-temporal analysis of ionospheric disturbances associated with seismic activity by applying the Differential Rate Of TEC (DROT) algorithm to GPS-based Total Electron Content (TEC) data. The investigation covers ten major earthquakes (Mw 9.0–5.6), examining ionospheric variability across pre-seismic, co-seismic, and post-seismic periods, alongside geomagnetically quiet and disturbed days. Results reveal that ionospheric perturbations are not confined to the pre-earthquake phase; significant anomalies are also observed during and up to six days after the seismic events. On earthquake days, DROT values predominantly cluster between 60 and 70%, indicating large-scale disturbances, while medium-scale disturbances (50–60%) are prevalent in the days leading up to and following the earthquakes. Spatial analysis shows stronger disturbances within 500 km of … |
