[IGSMAIL-7032] IUGG2015 - G03 Variations of the Gravity Field

[Shuanggen Jin]

Dear All Colleagues



I would draw your attention and welcome to submit your abstracts to
following session at IUGG2015, June 22-July 2, Prague, Czech. The abstract
submission deadline is Jan. 31, 2015.


Session G03 Variations of the Gravity Field

Convener: Srinivas Bettadpur (Austin, USA)

Co-conveners: Frank Flechtner (Potsdam, Germany), Shuanggen Jin (Shanghai,
China), Paul Tregoning (Canberra, Australia)


Description:

The Earth science community has enjoyed more than a decade of new insights
into the Earth system through the geodetic remote-sensing of
time-variations of Earth gravity field from the joint US/German GRACE
mission. Even further gains are anticipated with the planned 2017 launch of
the US/German GRACE Follow-On mission, as well as the other next generation
gravity missions envisaged in the post-2020 time-frame. At the same time,
there is renewed interest in the geodetic re-analysis of satellite laser
ranging and GNSS tracking of low-Earth orbiter (LEO) satellites as a means
of extended data records into the past, or for bridging between dedicated
gravity missions. Complementary outcomes from geophysical modeling, and
terrestrial positioning/loading and gravimetry are deployed to help
interpret, disaggregate, or validate time-variable gravity measurements. On
the applications front, the geodesy community is examining the use of
historical and low-latency satellite gravity data sets for both research as
well as operational applications. This session invites contributions
reporting on the state of the art pertinent to the full range of this
subject. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to: new results
from the studies of time-variable Earth gravity time-series; developments
in the methods of global and regional satellite gravity data analysis; use
of complementary geodetic methods for data collection and analysis of
time-variable gravity field; development of applications and technologies
for current and future gravity missions; innovations in algorithms,
computation, and analysis; and other related subjects.
