time-variable gravity determination from the grace gravity solutions filtered by tikhonov regularization in sobolev subspace
the grace mission has provided scientific community time-variable gravity field solutions with high precision and on a global scale. the grace mission was launched on march 2003. this mission consists of two satellites that pursue each other in their orbit. distance between two satellites in orbit is measured continuously to an accuracy of better than 1 micron using kbr system placed in satelli...
متن کاملThe Asymmetric Time-Variable Rings of Mars
significantly influence particles in the jovian ring (Burns et al. 1985) and in the saturnian E ring (Horanyi et al. In this paper, we investigate the dynamics and steady-state behavior of the hypothetical circumplanetary dust rings associ1992). Because the strengths of the various perturbation ated with the two tiny satellites of Mars, Phobos and Deimos. forces vary from one locale to another,...
متن کاملMars Geodesy/cartography Working Group Recommendations on Mars Cartographic Constants and Coordinate Systems
NASA's Mars Geodesy/Cartography Working Group (MGCWG), established in 1998 and chaired since 2000 by one of us (TCD), consists of leading researchers in planetary geodesy and cartography at such diverse institutions as JPL, NASA Ames and Goddard Centers, Purdue and Ohio State Universities, Malin Space Science Ssystems, the German Center for Aerospace Research DLR, and the US Geological Survey, ...
متن کاملThe gravity field of Mars: results from Mars Global Surveyor.
Observations of the gravity field of Mars reveal a planet that has responded differently in its northern and southern hemispheres to major impacts and volcanic processes. The rough, elevated southern hemisphere has a relatively featureless gravitational signature indicating a state of near-isostatic compensation, whereas the smooth, low northern plains display a wider range of gravitational ano...
متن کاملMeasurements of time-variable gravity show mass loss in Antarctica.
Using measurements of time-variable gravity from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment satellites, we determined mass variations of the Antarctic ice sheet during 2002-2005. We found that the mass of the ice sheet decreased significantly, at a rate of 152 +/- 80 cubic kilometers of ice per year, which is equivalent to 0.4 +/- 0.2 millimeters of global sea-level rise per year. Most of this...
