signals with sophisticated features. Researchers got novel GNSS receivers
with excellent characteristics and lower noise as a tool to explore the
Ionosphere, atmosphere and for interdisciplinary studies. The GNSS signals
recorded with high sampling rate have become available for many research
teams. </span></p>

opportunities provided with novel GNSS technologies as a new promising tool
for the Atmosphere, Ionosphere and Interdisciplinary explorations are still
critically underestimated. GNSS receiver is often a “black box” for a
researcher in geosciences. Can we rely on a certain receiver maker buying its
expensive receiver to embed it into a GUARDIAN network? Can the GNSS signals
recorded with high sampling rate give us better sensitivity and accuracy in
the geophysical explorations? What ionosphere-free combination is better to
reconstruct TEC and detect weak ionospheric response of earthquake or
tsunami? Today the list of the questions rises along with progress in GNSS
technologies. </span></p>
