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.

Self-consistent determination of the Earth’s GM, geocenter motion and figure axis orientation / Alexandre Couhert in Journal of geodesy, vol 94 n° 12 (December 2020)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 94 n° 12 (December 2020) . - n° 113 Titre : Self-consistent determination of the Earth’s GM, geocenter motion and figure axis orientation Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Alexandre Couhert, Auteur ; Christian Bizouard, Auteur ; F.

In particular, the first three degree geopotential terms are important, as they relate to intrinsic Earth’s mass references: gravitational coefficient (GM) of the Earth (degree 0), geocenter motion (degree 1), Earth’s figure axis orientation (degree 2). This paper presents a self-consistent determination of these three properties of the Earth. The main objective is to deal with the remaining sources of altimetry satellite orbit uncertainties affecting the fundamental record of sea surface height measurements. The analysis identifies the modeling errors, which should be mitigated when estimating the geocenter coordinates from Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) observations. The long-term behavior of the degree-0 and -2 spherical harmonics is also observed over the 34-year period 1984–2017 from the long-time history of satellite laser tracking to geodetic spherical satellites. From the analysis of the evolution of these two coefficients, constraints regarding the Earth’s rheology and uncertainties in the value of GM could be inferred. Overall, the influence of the orbit characteristics, SLR station ranging/position biases and satellite signature effects, measurement modeling errors (tropospheric corrections, non-tidal deformations) are also discussed.

Improved arctic ocean mass variability inferred from time-variable gravity with constraints and dual leakage correction / Dapeng Mu in Marine geodesy, Vol 43 n° 3 (May 2020)  

Public [article]  inMarine geodesy > Vol 43 n° 3 (May 2020) . - pp 269 - 284 Titre : Improved arctic ocean mass variability inferred from time-variable gravity with constraints and dual leakage correction Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Dapeng Mu, Auteur ; Tianhe Xu, Auteur ; Guochang Xu, Auteur Année de publication : 2020 Article en page(s) : pp 269 - 284 Note générale : Bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes descripteurs IGN] Arctique, océan [Termes descripteurs IGN] données GRACE [Termes descripteurs IGN] harmonique sphérique [Termes descripteurs IGN] marée océanique Résumé : (Auteur) The ocean mass variability inferred from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites mission is challenged by the stripes and the leakage across land-ocean boundary. The recently released GRACE mascons solutions are advanced by applying constraints that remove efficiently the stripes and dual leakage correction that restores the coastal ocean mass variability. Here we quantitatively evaluate the improvement in the Arctic Ocean mass variability by GRACE mascons. To do so, we compare the combination of GRACE solutions (including the mascons solutions and traditional spherical harmonic coefficients (SHCs) solutions) and the steric estimates against the altimeter observations. Our results suggest that mascons solutions produce stronger correlations compared to SHCs solutions, especially along the coastal zone, indicating the importance of the dual leakage correction. Stronger correlation is produced by the mascons over a small basin in the interior of the Arctic Ocean, suggesting that mascons solutions deliver better ocean mass variability than the SHCs solutions. Since the comparisons are carried out over two sub-basins, we conclude that mascons are able to provide better regional ocean mass variability that may have implications for regional sea level budget, in particular over the coastal zone.

A line integral approach for the computation of the potential harmonic coefficients of a constant density polyhedron / Olivier Jamet in Journal of geodesy, Vol 94 n°3 (March 2020)

The proposed method is based on the expression of these coefficients as the volume integral of solid harmonics. It is well known that the divergence theorem leads to an expression of these volume integrals as surface integrals. We show that these surface integrals can be expressed as the sum of line integrals along the edges of the polyhedron. In contrast to previous approaches, the values of the spherical harmonic coefficients at a given degree and order result directly from the computation of the line integrals. The performed numerical implementation revealed the stability of the proposed algorithm up to degree 360 for a prismatic test source.

Data-adaptive spatio-temporal filtering of GRACE data / Paoline Prevost in Geophysical journal international, vol 219 n° 3 (December 2019)  

Public [article]  inGeophysical journal international > vol 219 n° 3 (December 2019) . - pp 2034 - 2055 Titre : Data-adaptive spatio-temporal filtering of GRACE data Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Paoline Prevost, Auteur ; Kristel Chanard , Auteur ; Luce Fleitout, Auteur ; Eric Calais, Auteur ; Damian Walwer, Auteur ; Tonie M. van Dam, Auteur ; Michael Ghil, Auteur Année de publication : 2019 Projets : 2-Pas d'info accessible - article non ouvert / Article en page(s) : pp 2034 - 2055 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Traitement du signal [Termes descripteurs IGN] analyse de spectre singulier [Termes descripteurs IGN] données géophysiques [Termes descripteurs IGN] données GRACE [Termes descripteurs IGN] filtrage spatiotemporel [Termes descripteurs IGN] harmonique sphérique Résumé : (auteur) Measurements of the spatio-temporal variations of Earth’s gravity field from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) mission have led to new insights into large spatial mass redistribution at secular, seasonal and subseasonal timescales. GRACE solutions from various processing centres, while adopting different processing strategies, result in rather coherent estimates. However, these solutions also exhibit random as well as systematic errors, with specific spatial patterns in the latter. In order to dampen the noise and enhance the geophysical signals in the GRACE data, we propose an approach based on a data-driven spatio-temporal filter, namely the Multichannel Singular Spectrum Analysis (M-SSA). M-SSA is a data-adaptive, multivariate, and non-parametric method that simultaneously exploits the spatial and temporal correlations of geophysical fields to extract common modes of variability. We perform an M-SSA analysis on 13 yr of GRACE spherical harmonics solutions from five different processing centres in a simultaneous setup. We show that the method allows us to extract common modes of variability between solutions, while removing solution-specific spatio-temporal errors that arise from the processing strategies. In particular, the method efficiently filters out the spurious north–south stripes, which are caused in all likelihood by aliasing, due to the imperfect geophysical correction models and low-frequency noise in measurements. Comparison of the M-SSA GRACE solution with mass concentration (mascons) solutions shows that, while the former remains noisier, it does retrieve geophysical signals masked by the mascons regularization procedure.
