For this purpose, the geodetic boundary value problem (GBVP) solution based on the remove–compute–restore (RCR) technique is used. In the RCR technique, a global geopotential model (GGM) is required as a reference to remove and restore the long wavelengths of the gravity field. Since the GGMs do not have adequate accuracy over Iran, the IRHD offset is not precisely estimated by the GBVP solution. In this study, aiming to improve the latter, a combination solution based on the GBVP approach and spirit-leveling/gravimetry (LG) data, called the GBVP_LG solution, is proposed. To obtain the GBVP_LG solution, gravity potential obtained from the GBVP solution and the gravity potential differences derived from the LG data are used as two types of observations in a least-squares adjustment. The proper relative weight matrices are determined using the variance component estimation method. To evaluate the proposed method, the gravity potential differences between the start and end points of several check-lines in the leveling network derived from the GBVP and GBVP_LG solutions are compared with those of the LG data. The results show that the dependency of the GBVP_LG solution on the reference model used is much less than that of the GBVP solution. In addition, the results indicate that the GBVP_LG solution has a 42% improvement with respect to the GBVP solution in terms of root-mean-square error. As a result of the GBVP_LG solution, the gravity potential of the IRHD zero point is estimated equal to WIRHD0=62,636,855.89±0.16m2/s2. Therefore, the IRHD offset with respect to the geoid defined by W0=62,636,853.4m2/s2 is obtained equal to −25.4±1.6cm, which means that the IRHD is 25.4 cm below the geoid.

We derive error propagation formulas that take into account uncertainties in both the free air gravity anomaly and a digital elevation model. These are applied to generate G1 terms and their errors on a 1″ × 1″ grid over Australia. We use these to produce Molodensky gravity anomaly and accompanying uncertainty grids. These uncertainties have average value of 2 mGal with maximum of 54 mGal. We further calculate a gravimetric quasigeoid model by the remove–compute–restore technique. These Molodensky gravity anomaly uncertainties lead to quasigeoid uncertainties with a mean of 4 mm and maximum of 80 mm when propagated through a deterministically modified Stokes’s integral over an integration cap radius of 0.5°.

A generalized theory of the figure of the Earth : formulae / Chengli Huang in Journal of geodesy, vol 93 n° 3 (March 2019)

However, the Earth, known with a complex distribution of interior material and density, especially in the upper mantle and the crust, cannot be treated as a symmetric sphere. Recently, a CRUST1.0 model of crust layer is published and well accepted. But the effect caused by the asymmetric crust (and mantle) on equilibrium figures of the Earth cannot be analyzed by the traditional theories. A generalized theory of the figure of the Earth to third-order precision is firstly proposed in this paper, as well as the iterative calculation strategy to solve the complex equation system. In order to validate this generalized theory, the degeneration of this generalized theory with the PREM model is made and is compared with traditional theories, and it is shown that the result of this generalized theory, after degeneration, is consistent very well with traditional theory. Meanwhile, the effect (including both the direct and indirect effects) of the crust layer, from the CRUST1.0 model, on the figures of equipotential surfaces of the Earth’s interior, as well as their effects on the global dynamics flattening, will be presented as an application of this theory in accompanying paper.

On the assimilation of absolute geodetic dynamic topography in a global ocean model: impact on the deep ocean state / Alexey Androsov in Journal of geodesy, vol 93 n° 2 (February 2019)

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.

Enhancing the predictability of least-squares collocation through the integration with least-squares-support vector machine / Hossam Talaat Elshambaky in Journal of applied geodesy, vol 13 n° 1 (January 2019)

It has the capability to adjust, filter, and predict unknown quantities that affect many geodetic applications. Hence, this study aims to enhance the predictability property of LSC through applying soft computing techniques in the stage of describing the covariance function. Soft computing techniques include the support vector machine (SVM), least-squares-support vector machine (LS-SVM), and artificial neural network (ANN). A real geodetic case study is used to predict a national geoid from the EGM2008 global geoid model in Egypt. A comparison study between parametric and soft computing techniques was performed to assess the LSC predictability accuracy. We found that the predictability accuracy increased when using soft computing techniques in the range of 10.2 %–27.7 % and 8.2 %–29.8 % based on the mean square error and the mean error terms, respectively, compared with the parametric models. The LS-SVM achieved the highest accuracy among the soft computing techniques. In addition, we found that the integration between the LS-SVM with LSC exhibits an accuracy of 20 % and 25 % higher than using LS-SVM independently as a predicting tool, based on the mean square error and mean error terms, respectively. Consequently, the LS-SVM integrated with LSC is recommended for enhanced predictability in geodetic applications.
