Modulation of the lunar semidiurnal tide in GNSS TEC by the variable Earth-Moon distance by Klemens Hocke, Klemens Hocke

“…The M2 amplitude in TEC after perigee is larger by a factor of 1.25 than the M2 amplitude in TEC after apogee while equilibrium theory of tides predicts a factor of 1.40 for the perigee-to-apogee ratio of the lunar tide in equilibrium elevation of the ocean surface. Composite analysis with respect to the Moon orbit phase and phase differences of fast Fourier transform spectral components show that the maximal M2 amplitude in TEC occurs about 3.0 days after the perigee transit of the Moon. …”
