Long Period Ionospheric Disturbances Induced by Atmospheric Pressure Waves From the 2022 Tonga Volcanic Eruption by Dwijendra N. Pandey, Rajesh Rekapalli, J. K. Catherine, V. K. Gahalaut, N. Puviarasan

“…Our results demonstrate that (a) the pressure wave irregularities propagated all over the globe with an average velocity of ∼320 m/s and stimulated the non‐dispersive ionospheric perturbations with the same velocity, (b) the volcano ionospheric disturbances due to multiple eruptions lasted for more than 3 hr and are even noticed in the northern and southern polar regions, (c) the variation of amplitude of the ionospheric perturbations with distance from Tonga follows an exponential decay with some irregularities near the equator, and (d) a low‐frequency surface pressure irregularity of 12 hr duration is observed nearly 36 hr before the main eruption.…”
