Short summary
Total electron content (TEC) affects the GPS (Global Positioning System) signal propagation and applications of GPS signals like positioning. Here, we study long-term trends in TEC. TEC trends are regionally different and predominantly negative; all statistically significant trends are negative. TEC trends reveal a clear wavenumber 2 longitudinal structure in low/equatorial latitudes, with strong negative trends in belts 0–60° E and 180–240° E and weak trends in belts 90–150° E and 270–330° E.
