We analyse GNSS ionospheric scintillation data recorded in Antarctica to investigate the conditions of the near- Earth environment leading to scintillation scenarios, producing a “scintillation climatology” over a large geomagnetic quiet period.Within this scope we realize maps of scintillation occu...
