Forced with observed atmospheric fluxes they gradually drift away from measured distributions of temperature and salinity. We suggest data assimilation of absolute dynamical ocean topography (DOT) observed from space geodetic missions as an option to reduce these differences. Sea surface information of DOT is transferred into the deep ocean by defining the analysed ocean state as a weighted average of an ensemble of fully consistent model solutions using an error-subspace ensemble Kalman filter technique. Success of the technique is demonstrated by assimilation into a global configuration of the ocean circulation model FESOM over 1 year. The dynamic ocean topography data are obtained from a combination of multi-satellite altimetry and geoid measurements. The assimilation result is assessed using independent temperature and salinity analysis derived from profiling buoys of the AGRO float data set. The largest impact of the assimilation occurs at the first few analysis steps where both the model ocean topography and the steric height (i.e. temperature and salinity) are improved. The continued data assimilation over 1 year further improves the model state gradually. Deep ocean fields quickly adjust in a sustained manner: A model forecast initialized from the model state estimated by the data assimilation after only 1 month shows that improvements induced by the data assimilation remain in the model state for a long time. Even after 11 months, the modelled ocean topography and temperature fields show smaller errors than the model forecast without any data assimilation.

Generally, most of the existing Tm models only take either latitude or altitude into account in modeling. However, a great number of studies have shown that Tm is highly correlated with both latitude and altitude. In this study, a new global grid empirical Tm model, named as GGTm, was established by a sliding window algorithm using global gridded Tm data over an 8-year period from 2007 to 2014 provided by TU Vienna, where both latitude and altitude variations are considered in modeling. And the performance of GGTm was assessed by comparing with the Bevis formula and the GPT2w model, where the high-precision global gridded Tm data as provided by TU Vienna and the radiosonde data from 2015 are used as reference values. The results show the significant performance of the new GGTm model against other models when compared with gridded Tm data and radiosonde data, especially in the areas with great undulating terrain. Additionally, GGTm has the global mean RMSPWV and RMSPWV/PWV values of 0.26 mm and 1.28%, respectively. The GGTm model, fed only by the day of the year and the station coordinates, could provide a reliable and accurate Tm value, which shows the possible potential application in real-time GPS meteorology, especially for the application of low-latitude areas and western China.

Combined orbits and clocks from IGS second reprocessing / Jake Griffiths in Journal of geodesy, vol 93 n° 2 (February 2019)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 93 n° 2 (February 2019) . - pp 177 - 195 Titre : Combined orbits and clocks from IGS second reprocessing Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Jake Griffiths, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : pp 177 - 195 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Systèmes de référence et réseaux [Termes IGN] données GLONASS [Termes IGN] données GPS [Termes IGN] horloge du satellite [Termes IGN] International GNSS Service [Termes IGN] International Terrestrial Reference Frame [Termes IGN] orbite [Termes IGN] positionnement ponctuel précis [Termes IGN] série temporelle [Termes IGN] traitement de données GNSS Résumé : (auteur) The Analysis Centers (ACs) of the International GNSS Service (IGS) have reprocessed a large global network of GPS tracking data from 1994.0 until 2014.0 or later. Each AC product time series was extended uniformly till early 2015 using their weekly operational IGS contributions so that the complete combined product set covers GPS weeks 730 through 1831. Three ACs also included GLONASS data from as early as 2002 but that was insufficient to permit combined GLONASS products. The reprocessed terrestrial frame combination procedures and results have been reported already, and those were incorporated into the ITRF2014 multi-technique global frame released in 2016. This paper describes the orbit and clock submissions and their multi-AC combinations and assessments. These were released to users in early 2017 in time for the adoption of IGS14 for generating the operational IGS products. While the reprocessing goal was to enable homogeneous modeling, consistent with the current operational procedures, to be applied retrospectively to the full history of observation data in order to achieve a more suitable reference for geophysical studies, that objective has only been partially achieved. Ongoing AC analysis changes and a lack of full participation limit the consistency and precision of the finished IG2 products. Quantitative internal measures indicate that the reprocessed orbits are somewhat less precise than current operational orbits or even the later orbits from the first IGS reprocessing campaign. That is even more apparent for the clocks where a lack of robust AC participation means that it was only possible to form combined 5-min clocks but not the 30-s satellite clocks published operationally. Therefore, retrospective precise point positioning solutions by users are not recommended using the orbits and clocks. Nevertheless, the orbits do support long-term stable user solutions when used with network processing with either double differencing or explicit clock estimation. Among the main benefits of the reprocessing effort is a more consistent long product set to analyze for sources of systematic error and accuracy. Work to do that is underway but the reprocessing experience already points to a number of ways future IGS performance and reprocessing campaigns can be improved.

FFT swept filtering: a bias-free method for processing fringe signals in absolute gravimeters / Petr Křen in Journal of geodesy, vol 93 n° 2 (February 2019)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 93 n° 2 (February 2019) . - pp 219 - 227 Titre : FFT swept filtering: a bias-free method for processing fringe signals in absolute gravimeters Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Petr Křen, Auteur ; Vojtech Pálinkáš, Auteur ; Pavel Mašika, Auteur ; Miloš Val’ko, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : pp 219 - 227 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] distorsion du signal [Termes IGN] erreur systématique [Termes IGN] filtre passe-bande [Termes IGN] gravimètre absolu [Termes IGN] pesanteur terrestre [Termes IGN] régression linéaire [Termes IGN] transformation rapide de Fourier Résumé : (auteur) Absolute gravimeters, based on laser interferometry, are widely used for many applications in geoscience and metrology. Although currently the most accurate FG5 and FG5X gravimeters declare standard uncertainties at the level of 2−3μGal, their inherent systematic errors affect the gravity reference determined by international key comparisons based predominately on the use of FG5-type instruments. The measurement results for FG5-215 and FG5X-251 clearly showed that the measured g-values depend on the size of the fringe signal and that this effect might be approximated by a linear regression with a slope of up to 0.030μGal/mV. However, these empirical results do not enable one to identify the source of the effect or to determine a reasonable reference fringe level for correcting g-values in an absolute sense. Therefore, both gravimeters were equipped with new measuring systems (according to Křen et al. in Metrologia 53:27–40, 2016. https://doi.org/10.1088/0026-1394/53/1/27 applied for FG5), running in parallel with the original systems. The new systems use an analogue-to-digital converter HS5 to digitize the fringe signal and a new method of fringe signal analysis based on FFT swept bandpass filtering. We demonstrate that the source of the fringe size effect is connected to a distortion of the fringe signal due to the electronic components used in the FG5(X) gravimeters. To obtain a bias-free g-value, the FFT swept method should be applied for the determination of zero-crossings. A comparison of g-values obtained from the new and the original systems clearly shows that the original system might be biased by approximately 3−5μGal due to improperly distorted fringe signal processing.

Influence of subdaily model for polar motion on the estimated GPS satellite orbits / Natalia Panafidina in Journal of geodesy, vol 93 n° 2 (February 2019)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 93 n° 2 (February 2019) . - pp 229 - 240 Titre : Influence of subdaily model for polar motion on the estimated GPS satellite orbits Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Natalia Panafidina, Auteur ; Urs Hugentobler, Auteur ; Manuela Seitz, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Article en page(s) : pp 229 - 240 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] analyse diachronique [Termes IGN] élément orbital [Termes IGN] erreur systématique [Termes IGN] International Terrestrial Reference Frame [Termes IGN] marée océanique [Termes IGN] mouvement du géocentre [Termes IGN] mouvement du pôle [Termes IGN] orbite [Termes IGN] positionnement par GPS [Termes IGN] rotation de la Terre [Termes IGN] satellite GPS [Termes IGN] traitement du signal Résumé : (auteur) In this contribution, it is shown that GPS orbits are able to absorb some diurnal signals in polar motion. The arising implications for the influence of the subdaily pole model on GPS solutions are discussed. Two signals in polar motion can be absorbed by GPS orbits: a retrograde signal with a period of a sidereal day (23 h 56 min 4 s) and a prograde signal with a period matching the revolution period of the GPS satellites in the terrestrial reference frame (23 h 55 min 56 s). We show that the retrograde signal contributes to the absolute orientation of the orbital planes in space and the prograde signal, due to coincidence of its period with the period of revolution of the GPS satellites, contributes to the position of the geocenter for each individual satellite. It is known from previous studies that there are systematic differences between orbital parameters from GPS solutions computed with different subdaily pole models. We show in this paper that this behavior can be explained by the absorption effects in 1-day GPS orbits. Diurnal signals cannot be spectrally separated over a time interval of 1 day. Adjustment of any diurnal prograde or retrograde signal to a subdaily pole time series given by a subdaily model over 24 h will lead to an estimated signal with a nonzero amplitude. Thus, any subdaily pole model used in the processing of space geodetic observations contains a part which corresponds numerically to the discussed prograde signal and a part which corresponds to the retrograde diurnal signal. Different pole models show different amplitudes of the diurnal signals which will be absorbed by the orbits. As a result, GPS orbits computed with different subdaily pole models have systematically different orientation and position in space. Using 1-day GPS solutions over a time span of 13 years (1994–2007), we show that the systematic variations in orbit position and orientation caused by individual tidal terms in polar motion can be well predicted and explained by the suggested mechanism.
