Dear Colleagues,
<br>
<br>
As part of the 2017 Fall Meeting of the AGU that will be held in New
Orleans, Louisiana during <br>
11-15 December 2017, we would like to draw your attention to the
session on:<br>
<br>
"Reference Frames: Determination, Usage and Application".
<br>
<br>
The description of the session is given below.
<br>
<br>
We encourage you to participate in and submit an abstract to our
session.
<br>
<br>

Session ID#: 23099 (G016): Reference Frames: Determination, Usage
and Application:<br>
<br>
The quantification of many geophysical phenomena, e.g. sea level
variation, co-<br>
and post-seismic deformation, glacial isostatic adjustment, loading
effects, but<br>
also precise orbit determination of artificial satellites, rely on
the availability<br>
of a global terrestrial reference frame, such as the ITRF. The
session solicits<br>
contributions from scientists determining or using global reference
frames for their<br>
applications, focusing on error budgets and other limiting factors.
Contributions from<br>
analysts of space geodetic techniques (VLBI, SLR, GNSS, DORIS) and
their combination<br>
are also welcome. Papers on the exploitation of ITRF2014 published
last year are<br>
specifically encouraged.<br>
