Consciousness of the importance of accurate weather forecasts and climate modeling to manage our daily activities or to better understand physical processes of the atmosphere, many efforts have been made. Among the activity is monitoring and data collection, especially measurements of water vapor in the atmosphere, which was previously using conventional technology. One technology currently being developed and widely used in communications is Global Positioning System (GPS). The new GPS technology can be implemented in the field of meteorology in the early 1990s, where scientists have...

This book investigates tropospheric delays, one of the main error sources in Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), and its impact plays a crucial role in near real-time weather forecasting. Accessibility and accurate estimation of this parameter are essential for weather and climate research. Advances in GNNS application has allowed the measurements of Zenith Tropospheric Delay (ZTD) in all weather conditions and on a global scale with fine temporal and spatial resolution. However, GPS data are not always available for a full 24-hour period. Using a soft computing technique such as...
