[IGSMAIL-7424] G03 Time variable gravity field at IAG-IASPEI 2017, Japan

[Shuanggen Jin]

Dear All Colleagues

The joint Scientific Assembly of IAG and IASPEI will be held in Kobe, Japan, July 30-August 4, 2017. More information, such as abstract submission, travel support, registration and accommodation can be found at http://www.iag-iaspei-2017.jp

Welcome you and your colleagues to submit abstracts to 
IAG Symposium G03 Time variable gravity field
(Conveners: Shuanggen Jin, Srinivas Bettadpur, Jürgen Kusche)

Description: The time variable Earth's gravity field is related to the mass transport and the physic processes within Earth's system (the atmosphere, oceans, hydrology, and cryosphere), such as melting of ice sheets and glaciers, ocean circulation and sea level variations, hydrological cycle, post-glacial rebound and earthquake-induced gravity change. Nowadays, satellite gravimetry missions, particularly the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE), showed great success to estimate the time-varying gravity field with unprecedented accuracy and resolution, which has been widely used to investigate mass flux within the ocean-land water cycle and Earth's system coupling as well as responses to climate change together with complimentary data from Jason-1/2, ICESat, Cryosat-2, GNSS, and InSAR. Furthermore, various initiatives are ongoing to prepare for future gravity mission and most promising is the US/German GRACE Follow-on (GRACE-FO) mission in August 2017.

This interdisciplinary session solicits contributions on (1) time-varying gravity field estimation and improvement from satellite gravimetry missions and combination synergies, (2) mass transport in the Earth system and responses to climate change, and (3) status and simulated results of future time-varying gravity field missions.

Looking forward to your abstract submission and seeing you in Kobe.


Best Regards,
Shuanggen Jin, Srinivas Bettadpur, Jürgen Kusche
