contents Focusing on the M7.9 earthquake in Myanmar in 2025, this study comprehensively utilizes data from BeiDou geostationary satellites of the Chinese Continental Crustal Movement Observation Network and multi-system Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS). The spatiotemporal evolution characteristics and physical mechanisms of pre-seismic ionospheric anomalies and co-seismic ionospheric disturbances were systematically analyzed. By employing the moving interquartile range method combined with solar-terrestrial environmental parameters, a negative Total Electron Content (TEC) anomaly associated with the seismogenic region was identified three days before the earthquake. The equatorial conjugate structure of this TEC anomaly revealed a multi-path coupling effect between the lithosphere, atmosphere, and ionosphere. The extraction of Coherent Ionospheric Disturbance (CID) signals based on wavelet transform and band-pass filtering indicated that the co-seismic ionospheric disturbances were dominated by acoustic-gravity waves in the 2-8 mHz frequency band, propagating at a speed of approximately 1.2 km/s, and exhibiting an asymmetric pattern in the southeast direction. A spatial density-weighted method for locating the source of ionospheric disturbances was proposed, elucidating the joint control mechanism of fault strike-slip motion, geomagnetic field modulation, and equatorial electrojet on the disturbance energy. The results confirm that the high spatiotemporal resolution of BeiDou GEO satellites and multi-system GNSS significantly enhances the capability to capture weak ionospheric anomaly signals associated with earthquakes. These results provide additional observational constraints on space-based Lithosphere-Atmosphere-Ionosphere Coupling (LAIC) processes and may contribute to the development of ionosphere-based earthquake monitoring techniques.
