Initial results from retracking and reprocessing the ERS-1 geodetic mission altimetry for gravity field purposes -- Evaluation of Airborne Gravimetry Integrating GNSS and Strapdown INS Observations -- Status of the European Gravity and Geoid Project EGGP.-Photon Counting Airborne Laser Swath Mapping (PC-ALSM) -- A comparison of different isostatic models applied to satellite gravity gradiometry -- Spectral Analysis of Mean Dynamic Ocean Topography From the GRACE GGM01 Geoid -- Results of the International Comparison of Absolute Gravimeters in Walferdange (Luxembourg) of November 2003 -- Decadal Ocean Bottom Pressure Variability and its Associated Gravitational Effects in a Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Model.
In: Springer eBooksSummary: This volume represents the proceedings of the International Symposium on Gravity, Geoid, and Space Missions (GGSM2004), held in Porto, Portugal, 30 August - 3 September 2004. The symposium encompassed the themes of Commission 2 (Gravity Field) of IAG, as well as interdisciplinary topics related to geoid and gravity field, including integration of heterogeneous data and contributions from satellite and airborne techniques. Special focus was on gravity-dedicated satellite missions like CHAMP, GRACE, and GOCE. Projects addressing topographic and ice field mapping using SAR, LIDAR, and laser altimetry, as well as missions and studies related to planetary geodesy were also covered.
