Welcome to today's seminar on Ionospheric Waves. The ionosphere, a vital layer of Earth's atmosphere, plays a key role in shaping space weather phenomena, particularly through the generation of waves that influence both terrestrial and space-based systems. These ionospheric waves, such as Atmospheric Gravity Waves (AGWs) and Travelling Ionospheric Disturbances (TIDs), are driven by solar and terrestrial processes. Their impact can be seen in a range of behaviors, from disturbances in radio communications to changes in the ionosphere's structure. Today, we will delve into the mechanisms behind these waves, their causes, and their significant effects on high-frequency communication. Understanding these phenomena is crucial for improving communication reliability and forecasting space weather events. Let's explore how these ionospheric waves shape the environment we rely on daily.
