<p>Dear Colleagues,<br>
<br>
We are pleased to announce that the session entitled “Integration
of GNSS into Water Level Observation Networks: Priorities,
Technologies, and Benefits” will be part of the AGU 2023 Fall
Meeting that will be held in San Francisco (USA) next december.<br>
We encourage you to consider submitting an abstract to this
focused session, and to forward this announcement to others with
an interest in this topic.<br>
<br>
Full session details and an abstract submission link are available
at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"

<p>AGU Session G018 - <b>Integration of GNSS into Water Level
Observation Networks: Priorities, Technologies, and Benefits</b><br>
Tide and water level station records are some of the longest and
most meticulously-kept earth observation records, but these data
were historically only tied to local staffs or nearby bench marks
on land. Integration of GNSS at these stations not only provides
efficiencies in operational station maintenance cycles, but also
adds value to these long-term water level records by connecting
them to national and global reference frames and enabling the
quantification of relative sea level trend components. Despite the
recognized value of fusing these oceanographic and geodetic tools,
only a subset of global water level stations fully leverage GNSS.
This session invites the community to share new research that
demonstrates the value of GNSS-linked or GNSS-enabled water level
stations, exchange knowledge about best practices for
instrumentation, and showcase innovative technologies or
methodologies that will advance reliable, effective, and informed
use of GNSS in water level observation networks.</p>
