This region is known to be peculiar for external spherical harmonic expansions, because it may lead to a divergent series. The studied approaches are (i) spectral gravity forward modelling via external spherical harmonics, (ii) the least-squares estimation from surface gravitational data using external spherical harmonics and (iii) the combination of internal and external series expansions. While the first method diverges beyond any reasonable doubts, we show that the other two methods may ensure relative accuracy from ∼10−6 to 10−8 in the vicinity of Bennu. This is possible even with the second method, despite the fact that it relies on a single series of external spherical harmonics. Our main motivation was to study conceptual differences between spherical harmonic coefficients from satellite data (analogy to the first method) and from surface gravitational data (the second method). Such coefficients are available through the popular spherical-harmonic-based models of the Earth’s gravitational field and often are combined together. We show that the coefficients from terrestrial data may lead to a divergence effect of partial sums, though excellent accuracy can be achieved when such model is used in full. Under (presently) extreme but realistic conditions, the divergence effect of partial sums may affect many near-surface geoscientific applications, such as the geoid/quasigeoid computation or residual terrain modelling.

Strategy for the realisation of the International Height Reference System (IHRS) / Laura Sánchez in Journal of geodesy, vol 95 n° 4 (April 2021)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 95 n° 4 (April 2021) . - n° 33 Titre : Strategy for the realisation of the International Height Reference System (IHRS) Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Laura Sánchez, Auteur ; Jonas Ågren, Auteur ; Jianliang Huang, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 33 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Systèmes de référence et réseaux [Termes IGN] Association internationale de géodésie [Termes IGN] champ de pesanteur terrestre [Termes IGN] cohérence [Termes IGN] coordonnées géodésiques [Termes IGN] hauteur ellipsoïdale [Termes IGN] International Terrestrial Reference Frame [Termes IGN] modèle de géopotentiel [Termes IGN] norme [Termes IGN] potentiel de pesanteur terrestre [Termes IGN] système de référence altimétrique [Termes IGN] système international de référence altimétrique Résumé : (auteur) In 2015, the International Association of Geodesy defined the International Height Reference System (IHRS) as the conventional gravity field-related global height system. The IHRS is a geopotential reference system co-rotating with the Earth. Coordinates of points or objects close to or on the Earth’s surface are given by geopotential numbers C(P) referring to an equipotential surface defined by the conventional value W0 = 62,636,853.4 m2 s−2, and geocentric Cartesian coordinates X referring to the International Terrestrial Reference System (ITRS). Current efforts concentrate on an accurate, consistent, and well-defined realisation of the IHRS to provide an international standard for the precise determination of physical coordinates worldwide. Accordingly, this study focuses on the strategy for the realisation of the IHRS; i.e. the establishment of the International Height Reference Frame (IHRF). Four main aspects are considered: (1) methods for the determination of IHRF physical coordinates; (2) standards and conventions needed to ensure consistency between the definition and the realisation of the reference system; (3) criteria for the IHRF reference network design and station selection; and (4) operational infrastructure to guarantee a reliable and long-term sustainability of the IHRF. A highlight of this work is the evaluation of different approaches for the determination and accuracy assessment of IHRF coordinates based on the existing resources, namely (1) global gravity models of high resolution, (2) precise regional gravity field modelling, and (3) vertical datum unification of the local height systems into the IHRF. After a detailed discussion of the advantages, current limitations, and possibilities of improvement in the coordinate determination using these options, we define a strategy for the establishment of the IHRF including data requirements, a set of minimum standards/conventions for the determination of potential coordinates, a first IHRF reference network configuration, and a proposal to create a component of the International Gravity Field Service (IGFS) dedicated to the maintenance and servicing of the IHRS/IHRF.

What have we learnt from Icesat on Greenland ice sheet change and what to expect from Icesat 2 / Blaženka Bukač in Geodetski vestnik, vol 65 n° 1 (March - May 2021)  

Public [article]  inGeodetski vestnik > vol 65 n° 1 (March - May 2021) . - pp 94 - 109 Titre : What have we learnt from Icesat on Greenland ice sheet change and what to expect from Icesat 2 Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Blaženka Bukač, Auteur ; Marijan Grgić, Auteur ; Tomislav Basic, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 94 - 109 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Slovène (slv) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] altimétrie satellitaire par laser [Termes IGN] bilan de masse [Termes IGN] calotte glaciaire [Termes IGN] champ de pesanteur terrestre [Termes IGN] données GRACE [Termes IGN] données ICEsat [Termes IGN] glace de mer [Termes IGN] glacier [Termes IGN] Groenland [Termes IGN] levé gravimétrique Résumé : (auteur) Ice-sheet mass balance and ice behaviour have been effectively monitored remotely by space-borne laser ranging technology, i.e. satellite laser altimetry, and/or satellite gravimetry. ICESat mission launched in 2003 has pioneered laser altimetry providing a large amount of elevation data related to ice sheet change with high spatial and temporal resolution. ICESat-2, the successor to the ICESat mission, was launched in 2018, continuing the legacy of its predecessor. This paper presents an overview of the satellite laser altimetry and a review of Greenland ice sheet change estimated from ICESat data and compared against estimates derived from satellite gravimetry, i.e. changes of the Earth’s gravity field obtained from the GRACE data.I n addition to that, it provides an insight into the characteristics and possibilities of ice sheet monitoring with renewed mission ICESat-2, which was compared against ICESat for the examination of ice height changes on the Jakobshavn glacier. ICESat comparison (2004–2008) shows that an average elevation change in different areas on Greenland varies up to ±0.60 m yr−1. Island’s coastal southern regions are most affected by ice loss, while inland areas record near-balance state. In the same period, gravity anomaly measurements showed negative annual mass balance trends in coastal regions ranging from a few cm up to-0.36 m yr-1 w.e.(water equivalent), while inlandrecords show slightly positive trends. According to GRACE observations, in the following years (2009–2017), negative annual mass balance trends on the coast continued.

A hybrid approach for recovering high-resolution temporal gravity fields from satellite laser ranging / Anno Löcher in Journal of geodesy, vol 95 n° 1 (January 2021)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 95 n° 1 (January 2021) . - n° 6 Titre : A hybrid approach for recovering high-resolution temporal gravity fields from satellite laser ranging Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Anno Löcher, Auteur ; Jürgen Kusche, Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : n° 6 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] champ de pesanteur terrestre [Termes IGN] changement temporel [Termes IGN] données GRACE [Termes IGN] données TLS (télémétrie) [Termes IGN] facteur d'échelle [Termes IGN] fonction orthogonale [Termes IGN] harmonique sphérique [Termes IGN] modélisation [Termes IGN] série temporelle Résumé : (auteur) A new approach to recover time-variable gravity fields from satellite laser ranging (SLR) is presented. It takes up the concept of lumped coefficients by representing the temporal changes of the Earth’s gravity field by spatial patterns via combinations of spherical harmonics. These patterns are derived from the GRACE mission by decomposing the series of monthly gravity field solutions into empirical orthogonal functions (EOFs). The basic idea of the approach is then to use the leading EOFs as base functions in the gravity field modelling and to adjust the respective scaling factors straightforward within the dynamic orbit computation; only for the lowest degrees, the spherical harmonic coefficients are estimated separately. As a result, the estimated gravity fields have formally the same spatial resolution as GRACE. It is shown that, within the GRACE time frame, both the secular and the seasonal signals in the GRACE time series are reproduced with high accuracy. In the period prior to GRACE, the SLR solutions are in good agreement with other techniques and models and confirm, for instance, that the Greenland ice sheet was stable until the late 1990s. Further validation is done with the first monthly fields from GRACE Follow-On, showing a similar agreement as with GRACE itself. Significant differences to the reference data only emerge occasionally when zooming into smaller river basins with strong interannual mass variations. In such cases, the approach reaches its limits which are set by the low spectral sensitivity of the SLR satellites and the strong constraints exerted by the EOFs. The benefit achieved by the enhanced spatial resolution has to be seen, therefore, primarily in the proper capturing of the mass signal in medium or large areas rather than in the opportunity to focus on isolated spatial details.

The influence of sea-level changes on geodetic datums along the east coast of China / Yang Liu in Marine geodesy, vol 44 n° 1 (January 2021)  

Public [article]  inMarine geodesy > vol 44 n° 1 (January 2021) . - pp 26 - 41 Titre : The influence of sea-level changes on geodetic datums along the east coast of China Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Yang Liu, Auteur ; Chuanyin Zhang, Auteur ; Baogui Ke, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2021 Article en page(s) : pp 26 - 41 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] analyse harmonique [Termes IGN] champ de pesanteur terrestre [Termes IGN] changement du niveau de la mer [Termes IGN] Chine [Termes IGN] déformation de la croute terrestre [Termes IGN] données géodésiques [Termes IGN] données spatiotemporelles [Termes IGN] fonction de Green [Termes IGN] littoral [Termes IGN] surveillance du littoral [Termes IGN] système de référence local Résumé : (Auteur) Non-tidal variation on sea level generates immediate changes in gravity field and deformation of the Earth’s crust, thus influencing the stability of geodetic datums. To achieve higher accuracy of geodetic datums in coastal and island areas, sea-level changes should be adequately considered when conducting the maintenance of datums. Based on the data of sea-level anomalies from 2014 to 2017 and the theory of load-deformation of elastic spherical earth, this paper demonstrates that impacts of non-tidal ocean load can be quantitatively calculated on geodetic datums along the east coast of China, by using removerestore technique and combining spherical harmonic analysis of gravity field and Green’s functions to calculate loads. Temporal and spatial analyses on the impacts are conducted with Continuously Operating Reference Stations (CORS) sites along the coast and on the islands. This paper has drawn some conclusions as follows: (1) The impact of non-tidal ocean loads on the east coastal geoid ranges from ?4.16 to 4.17mm, that on ground gravity ranges from ?15.44 to 17.02 some conclusions as follows: (1) The impact oranges from ?7.55 to 6.69mm. (2) The impacts are dominated by annual and semi-annual cycles. (3) The impacts appear to be more prominent in coastal areas and on islands than in inland areas.
