Popis: Using the high-rate phase and amplitude scintillation data from FORMOSA7/COSMIC two mission and back-propagation method, we geolocate plasma irregularities that cause scintillations. The results of geolocation are compared with the NASA GOLD UV image data of plasma bubbles. The root mean square of the zonal difference between estimated locations of plasma irregularities and plasma bubbles are about 1.5° and for single intersection cases 0.5° in the magnetic longitude. The geolocation data provide more accurate scintillation location around the globe compared to assigning to the tangent point and is valuable space weather product, which will be routinely available for public use.
