Geodesy for Climate Research
Geodesy for Climate Research
Session ID#: 121970
Session Description:
Modern geodetic observing systems are sensitive to a wide range of changes in the Earth’s solid and fluid layers at very diverging spatial and temporal scales related to processes as, e.g., glacial isostatic adjustment, the terrestrial water cycle, Earth's energy balance, ocean dynamics, sea-level, and ice-mass balance.
We invite contributions utilizing geodetic data from e.g. altimetry, gravimetry, navigation satellite systems or remote sensing techniques that are based on both passive and active instruments. New approaches helping to separate and interpret the variety of geophysical signals present in observations, e.g., through modeling approaches are equally appreciated.
The session closely adheres to the ideas of the Inter-Commission Committee on "Geodesy for Climate Research" (ICCC), which encourages collaborations between the climate and geodetic community and promote the use of geodetic observations and principles while at the same time benefiting from climate expertise in the interpretation and correction of geodetic observations.
