GGP Ground Truth for Satellite Gravity Missions
The launch of the satellite GRACE heralds a new era of high precision, time-varying, satellite measurements of the Earth's gravity field. An important aspect of the mission is to consider how the predicted high-accuracy gravity data might be validated. Two kinds of validation have been proposed; the first is internal, whereby the data are modeled for self – consistency to verify the internal ac...
متن کاملValidation Concepts for Gravity Field Models from New Satellite Missions
The new satellite missions CHAMP, GRACE and GOCE will provide significantly improved global gravity field information in terms of quality and spatial resolution. In order to quantify the quality of these gravity field models independently from the estimation procedure, new validation concepts are necessary using external information. Validation requires the processing of selected level 3 produc...
متن کاملTrace Gas Assimilation in Preparation for Future Satellite Missions
Introduction: This work aims to set up a framework for assimilation of trace gas species into a Martian Global Circulation Model (MGCM). The launch of the ISRO Mars Orbiter and NASA Mars Atmosphere and Volatile EvolutioN mission will add to our knowledge of trace gases and atmospheric chemistry. In addition, the Exomars Trace Gas Orbiter (TGO) launches in 2016 and will obtain observations of tr...
متن کاملGravity Field Analysis from the Satellite Missions CHAMP and GOCE
This work describes global gravity field modeling from observations of the CHAMP and the GOCE satellite mission. In the case of CHAMP the so-called Energy Balance Approach is applied to measurements of GPS high-low tracking of the low orbiting CHAMP spacecraft. In the case of GOCE gravity gradiometry is the main observable. The experience gained processing real data of the CHAMP satellite missi...
متن کاملSignificant improvements in marine gravity from ongoing satellite missions
Incorporating new altimeter data from CryoSat-2 (30 months), Envisat (18 months), and Jason-1 (7 months) satellites into an updated marine gravity field yields significant reduction in noise and improved resolution. Compared to an older gravity field that did not include the new altimeter data, incoherent power is reduced globally by approximately 2.9 dB at 15 km, 1.6 dB at 20 km, and 1.0 dB at...
