Atmospheric Refraction

Atmospheric Refraction is the bending of electromagnetic wavefronts from Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) as they propagate through the Earth's atmosphere due to spatial variations in the refractive index caused by changes in temperature, pressure, and water vapor content.
