摘要
We have used four years of Global Positioning System (GPS) data to study the amount of integrated water vapor (IWV) in the atmosphere. We find that the presence of certain radomes at some sites highly affects the water vapor estimates at other sites. These effects are eliminated by using a technique in which data from each station are processed individually.
