Satellite radar altimetry has been monitoring the earth’s oceans from space for several decades. However, only the GEOSAT and ERS-1 geodetic mission data recorded more than a decade ago provide altimetry with adequate spatial coverage to derive a high-resolution marine gravity field. The original geodetic mission data suffer from degradation in quality and coverage close to the coast and in Polar Regions as well as the occasionally wrongly retracking of these, even in the open ocean. In order to improve the quality of these geodetic mission data and to derive a new improved global marine gravity field called DNSC08GRA, a new double retracking technique for analyzing the waveform data has been developed. Multiple retracking allows the system to retrack more data to increase the spatial coverage of the data. Subsequently, a second retracking run is used to enhance the SSH determination by using information from the first fitting to inform the second set of retrackers about smoothly varying sea state parameters. The development of the new global marine gravity field DNSC08GRA is described in this paper. Besides application of new retracking techniques the radar altimetry has been processed using EGM2008 as reference and augmented with ArcGP gravity data and laser altimetry from ICESat to close the Polar gap. DNSC08GRA is seen to perform significantly better than previous global marine gravity field like KMS02. The improvement in accuracy is better than 20% in general, but in coastal regions, the improvement is in many places of the order of 40–50% compared to older global marine gravity field KMS02.  相似文献

We present a geoid solution for the Weddell Sea and adjacent continental Antarctic regions. There, a refined geoid is of interest, especially for oceanographic and glaciological applications. For example, to investigate the Weddell Gyre as a part of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current and, thus, of the global ocean circulation, the mean dynamic topography (MDT) is needed. These days, the marine gravity field can be inferred with high and homogeneous resolution from altimetric height profiles of the mean sea surface. However, in areas permanently covered by sea ice as well as in coastal regions, satellite altimetry features deficiencies. Focussing on the Weddell Sea, these aspects are investigated in detail. In these areas, ground-based data that have not been used for geoid computation so far provide additional information in comparison with the existing high-resolution global gravity field models such as EGM2008. The geoid computation is based on the remove–compute–restore approach making use of least-squares collocation. The residual geoid with respect to a release 4 GOCE model adds up to two meters and more in the near-coastal and continental areas of the Weddell Sea region, also in comparison with EGM2008. Consequently, the thus refined geoid serves to compute new estimates of the regional MDT and geostrophic currents.  相似文献

海洋重力场模型反演的质量主要依赖于采用测高数据的精度、空间分辨率和数据分布密集程度。本文联合Geosat GM/ERM、ERS-1 GM/ERM、TOPEX/Poseidon、Envisat、Cryosat-2、Jason-1 ERM/GM和SARAL/AltiKa等多种测高观测数据集,深入比较了多种波形重跟踪算法的效果,回波数据重跟踪处理后的沿轨海面高标准差。统计表明,Sandwell算法优于MLE-4算法、Davis阈值法、改进阈值法和β参数拟合法;基于不同测高数据波形重采样的结果给出了沿轨海面梯度计算中低通滤波的参数选择方法,并采用Sandwell提出的垂线偏差法,反演了全球海域1′×1′的重力场模型。检核表明,反演结果与DTU13和SIO V23.1模型检核的差值均方根分别为3.4、1.8 mGal,与NGDC船测数据的检核精度为4~8 mGal,且本文模型在部分典型海区内精度更优。  相似文献

经典物理大地测量学利用斯托克斯方法和莫洛金斯基方法解算大地测量边值问题并给出地球外部重力场表达,若忽略1~2 m量级的动力学海面地形,静止的平均海面可认为是大地水准面,后者是与平均海平面最为接近的重力等位面。经典理论无法求解海洋内部,即地球内部重力场问题,为解决这一局限,基于地表浅层法引入“浅层海水”的概念,“浅层海水”上下界面由平均海面高模型DTU21确定,利用牛顿积分和球谐展开算法确定了最优球谐分析迭代次数,分析了“浅层海水”厚度与积分区域半径大小的关系,确定了“浅层海水”厚度为100 m、500 m和1 000 m时的最优积分区域半径为1°,厚度4 000 m时为1.5°;评估了“浅层海水”质量法移去-恢复海洋表面重力值的精度,“浅层海水”厚度100 m、500 m、1 000 m和4 000 m的均方根误差分别为0.13 mGal、0.61 mGal、1.21 mGal和3.93 mGal,验证了该方法的可靠性。基于此理论,计算了不同厚度“浅层海水”下表面的层面重力值,得到了100 m、500 m、1 000 m和4 000 m深度处层面重力值与“浅层海水”上表面重力值差的均方根,分别为22.11 mGal、110.50 mGal、220.87 mGal和877.31 mGal。  相似文献

Two modifications of the Hotine formula using the truncation theory and marine gravity disturbances with altimetry data are developed and used to compute a marine gravimetric geoid in the Gulf Stream area. The purpose of the geoid computation from marine gravity information is to derive the absolute dynamic ocean topography based on the best estimate of the mean surface height from recent altimetry missions such as Geosat, ERS-1, and Topex. This paper also tries to overcome difficulties of using Fast Fourier Transformation (FFT) techniques to the geoid computation when the Hotine kernel is modified according to the truncation theory. The derived absolute dynamic ocean topography is compared with that from global circulation models such as POCM4B and POP96. The RMS difference between altimetry-derived and global circulation model dynamic ocean topography is at the level of 25cm. The corresponding mean difference for POCM4B and POP96 is only a few centimeters. This study also shows that the POP96 model is in slightly better agreement with the results derived from the Hotine formula and altimetry data than POCM4B in the Gulf Stream area. In addition, Hotine formula with modification (II) gives the better agreement with the results from the two global circulation models than the other techniques discussed in this paper.

根据自主海洋测高卫星发展需求,设计了双星串飞运行模式,该运行模式下2.3 a时间可满足全球海洋区域1'×1'分辨率的地面轨迹覆盖要求。首先,将测高卫星重力场反演分为不考虑轨道运行特点(思路1)和考虑串飞轨道运行特点(思路2)两种思路,利用逆Vening-Meinesz方法开展了正态分布下随机误差传播的仿真计算,获得了两种思路下对应的误差指标。以该误差指标为基础,分别计算了双星串飞模式下两种重力场反演思路对应的精度指标。其中,反演思路2充分利用了串飞模式双星东西方向地面观测值可以进行相对定轨的特点,并考虑到近距离条件下传播误差、地球物理改正误差的系统误差特性,因此反演思路2的垂线偏差精度较反演思路1有了一定的提高,其重力场反演也具有一定的优势。理论计算结果表明,利用思路1的反演方法,2.3 a时间可获得1'×1'重力异常精度为6~10 mGal,4.6 a时间可达到4.2~7.1 mGal;利用思路2的反演方法,2.3 a时间可获得1'×1'重力异常精度为3.9 mGal,4.6 a时间可达到2.8 mGal。  相似文献

We develop a slope correction model to improve the accuracy of mean sea surface topography models as well as marine gravity models. The correction is greatest above ocean trenches and large seamounts where the slope of the geoid exceeds 100  \(\upmu \) rad. In extreme cases, the correction to the mean sea surface height is 40 mm and the correction to the along-track altimeter slope is 1–2  \(\upmu \) rad which maps into a 1–2 mGal gravity error. Both corrections are easily applied using existing grids of sea surface slope from satellite altimetry.  相似文献

Using the spherical harmonic representations of the earth's disturbing potential and its functionals, we derive the inverse Vening Meinesz formula, which converts deflection of the vertical to gravity anomaly using the gradient of the H function. The deflection-geoid formula is also derived that converts deflection to geoidal undulation using the gradient of the C function. The two formulae are implemented by the 1D FFT and the 2D FFT methods. The innermost zone effect is derived. The inverse Vening Meinesz formula is employed to compute gravity anomalies and geoidal undulations over the South China Sea using deflections from Seasat, Geosat, ERS-1 and TOPEX//POSEIDON satellite altimetry. The 1D FFT yields the best result of 9.9-mgal rms difference with the shipborne gravity anomalies. Using the simulated deflections from EGM96, the deflection-geoid formula yields a 4-cm rms difference with the EGM96-generated geoid. The predicted gravity anomalies and geoidal undulations can be used to study the tectonic structure and the ocean circulations of the South China Sea.

从经典边值问题理论及球谐函数理论出发,在空域推导获得了由大地水准面高以及垂线偏差计算扰动重力的解析计算公式,为利用卫星测高数据反演海洋扰动重力提供了理论基础。针对全球海洋区域和局部海洋区域的扰动重力反演,在前人已有工作基础上,提出了改进的基于一维FFT的精确快速算法,保证了计算结果与原解析方法完全一致,且计算速度提高约20倍。该算法在提高计算效率的同时避免了由于引入FFT而产生的混叠、边缘效应问题,而且对观测数据的序列长度没有硬性要求,使得应用更加灵活。利用EGM2008地球重力场模型分别生成了2.5'分辨率大地水准面高数据和垂线偏差数据,按照本文提出的改进方法(采用全球积分计算)分别反演获得了全球及局部海洋区域的扰动重力。经比较分析,由大地水准面和垂线偏差分别反演获得的扰动重力其差异在0.8×10-5 m/s2以内,这说明两种反演方法是基本一致的,但在数据包含系统误差的情况下,由垂线偏差反演扰动重力具有一定优势。  相似文献

The direct method of vertical datum unification requires estimates of the ocean’s mean dynamic topography (MDT) at tide gauges, which can be sourced from either geodetic or oceanographic approaches. To assess the suitability of different types of MDT for this purpose, we evaluate 13 physics-based numerical ocean models and six MDTs computed from observed geodetic and/or ocean data at 32 tide gauges around the Australian coast. We focus on the viability of numerical ocean models for vertical datum unification, classifying the 13 ocean models used as either independent (do not contain assimilated geodetic data) or non-independent (do contain assimilated geodetic data). We find that the independent and non-independent ocean models deliver similar results. Maximum differences among ocean models and geodetic MDTs reach >150 mm at several Australian tide gauges and are considered anomalous at the 99% confidence level. These differences appear to be of geodetic origin, but without additional independent information, or formal error estimates for each model, some of these errors remain inseparable. Our results imply that some ocean models have standard deviations of differences with other MDTs (using geodetic and/or ocean observations) at Australian tide gauges, and with levelling between some Australian tide gauges, of \({\sim }\pm 50\,\hbox {mm}\). This indicates that they should be considered as an alternative to geodetic MDTs for the direct unification of vertical datums. They can also be used as diagnostics for errors in geodetic MDT in coastal zones, but the inseparability problem remains, where the error cannot be discriminated between the geoid model or altimeter-derived mean sea surface.  相似文献

One of the principal problems in separating the non-tidal Newtonian gravitational effects from other forces acting on the ocean surface with a resolution approaching the 10 cm level arises as a consequence ofall measurements of a geodetic nature being taken eitherat orto the ocean surface. The latter could be displaced by as much as ±2 m from the equipotential surface of the Earth’s gravity field corresponding to the mean level of the oceans at the epoch of observation— i.e., the geoid. A secondary problem of no less importance is the likelihood of all datums for geodetic levelling in different parts of the world not coinciding with the geoid as defined above. It is likely that conditions will be favourable for the resolution of this problem in the next decade as part of the activities of NASA’s Earth and Ocean Physics Applications Program (EOPAP). It is planned to launch a series of spacecraft fitted with altimeters for ranging to the ocean surface as part of this program. Possible techniques for overcoming the problems mentioned above are outlined within the framework of a solution of the geodetic boundary value problem to ±5 cm in the height anomaly. The latter is referred to a “higher” reference surface obtained by incorporating the gravity field model used in the orbital analysis with that afforded by the conventional equipotential ellipsoidal model (Mather 1974 b). The input data for the solution outlined are ocean surface heights as estimated from satellite altimetry and gravity anomalies on land and continental shelf areas. The solution calls for a quadratures evaluation in the first instance. The probability of success will be enhanced if care were paid to the elimination of sources of systematic error of long wavelength in both types of data as detailed in (Mather 1973 a; Mather 1974 b) prior to its collection and assembly for quadratures evaluations.  相似文献

One-year average satellite altimetry data from the Exact Repeat Missions (ERM) of GEOSAT have been used to determine marine gravity disturbances in the Labrador Sea region using the inverse Hotine approach with FFT techniques. The derived satellite gravity information has been compared to shipboard gravity as well as gravity information derived by least-squares collocation (LSC), GEMT3 and OSU91A geopotential models in the Orphan Knoll area. The RMS and mean differences between satellite and shipboard gravity disturbances are about 8.0 and 2.8 mGal, respectively. There is no significantly difference between the results obtained using FFT and LSC.  相似文献

Unmodeled sub-daily ocean S2 tide signals that alias into lower frequencies have been detected in the analysis of gravity recovery and climate experiment (GRACE) space gravity fields of GRGS. The most significant global S2 aliased signal occurs off the northwest coast of Australia in a shallow continental shelf zone, a region with high tidal amplitudes at a period of 161 days. The GRACE S2 aliased equivalent water height grids are convolved with Green’s functions to produce GRACE aliased tidal loading (GATL) vertical displacements. The analysis of hourly global positioning system (GPS) vertical coordinate estimates at permanent sites in the region confirms the presence of spectral power at the S2 frequency when the same ocean tide model (FES2004) was used. Thus, deficiencies in the FES2004 ocean tide model are detected both directly and indirectly by the two independent space geodetic techniques. Through simulation, the admittance (ratio of amplitude of spurious long-wavelength output signal in the GRACE time-series to amplitude of unmodeled periodic signals) of the GRACE unmodeled S2 tidal signals, aliased to a 161-day period, is found to have a global average close to 100%, although with substantial spatial variation. Comparing GATL with unmodeled S2 tidal sub-daily signals in the vertical GPS time-series in the region of Broome in NW Australia suggests an admittance of 110–130%.  相似文献

Ellipsoidal geoid computation   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
Modern geoid computation uses a global gravity model, such as EGM96, as a third component in a remove–restore process. The classical approach uses only two: the reference ellipsoid and a geometrical model representing the topography. The rationale for all three components is reviewed, drawing attention to the much smaller precision now needed when transforming residual gravity anomalies. It is shown that all ellipsoidal effects needed for geoid computation with millimetric accuracy are automatically included provided that the free air anomaly and geoid are calculated correctly from the global model. Both must be consistent with an ellipsoidal Earth and with the treatment of observed gravity data. Further ellipsoidal corrections are then negligible. Precise formulae are developed for the geoid height and the free air anomaly using a global gravity model, given as spherical harmonic coefficients. Although only linear in the anomalous potential, these formulae are otherwise exact for an ellipsoidal reference Earth—they involve closed analytical functions of the eccentricity (and the Earths spin rate), rather than a truncated power series in e2. They are evaluated using EGM96 and give ellipsoidal corrections to the conventional free air anomaly ranging from –0.84 to +1.14 mGal, both extremes occurring in Tibet. The geoid error corresponding to these differences is dominated by longer wavelengths, so extrema occur elsewhere, rising to +766 mm south of India and falling to –594 mm over New Guinea. At short wavelengths, the difference between ellipsoidal corrections based only on EGM96 and those derived from detailed local gravity data for the North Sea geoid GEONZ97 has a standard deviation of only 3.3 mm. However, the long-wavelength components missed by the local computation reach 300 mm and have a significant slope. In Australia, for example, such a slope would amount to a 600-mm rise from Perth to Cairns.  相似文献

Towards a 1 mGal accuracy and 1 min resolution altimetry gravity field   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Over the past three decades, radar altimetry has made a significant contribution to marine gravity field modeling. To improve the accuracy and resolution, we propose a new twin-satellite altimetry. Such a system has several advantages. Among others, it provides (i) twice the number of samples per time epoch, and (ii) information about the cross-track surface gradient with high accuracy because most of the environmental and tidal errors will be common to the simultaneous measurements and therefore cancel out when computing the cross-track gradient computation. We describe a rigorous procedure for the deduction of the sea surface gradient at each altimeter observation point (i.e., not only at the crossovers), from the twin-satellite altimetry system. The precision of the gradient will be slightly affected by orbit errors, instrument drift, and inaccuracies in the geophysical corrections to be applied. We also demonstrate that a 1 mGal accuracy and 1 min resolution marine altimetry gravity field can be obtained if certain conditions are met. To achieve the expected goal, we recommend an orbital configuration, phasing two satellites in 4-s time delay such that the Earth rotation creates a natural baseline between the two satellites, and a 18 kHz SAR altimeter.  相似文献

Gibbs sampler for computing and propagating large covariance matrices   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
Gundlich  B.  Koch  K.-R.  Kusche  J. 《Journal of Geodesy》2003,77(9):514-528
The use of sampling-based Monte Carlo methods for the computation and propagation of large covariance matrices in geodetic applications is investigated. In particular, the so-called Gibbs sampler, and its use in deriving covariance matrices by Monte Carlo integration, and in linear and nonlinear error propagation studies, is discussed. Modifications of this technique are given which improve in efficiency in situations where estimated parameters are highly correlated and normal matrices appear as ill-conditioned. This is a situation frequently encountered in satellite gravity field modelling. A synthetic experiment, where covariance matrices for spherical harmonic coefficients are estimated and propagated to geoid height covariance matrices, is described. In this case, the generated samples correspond to random realizations of errors of a gravity field model. AcknowledgementsThe authors are indebted to Pieter Visser and Pavel Ditmar for providing simulation output that was used in the GOCE error generation experiments. Furthermore, the NASA/NIMA/OSU team is acknowledged for providing public ftp access to the EGM96 error covariance matrix. The two anonymous reviewers are thanked for their valuable comments.  相似文献

理解全球海平面变化具有十分重要的意义,它间接反映了地球系统中气候性相关因素的变化。本文基于一组海平面指纹和比容经验正交函数,联合时变重力数据和卫星测高数据反演了2002年4月至2020年2月的全球海平面变化,将全球海平面变化分解成南极冰盖融化、格陵兰冰盖融化、陆地冰川融化、陆地水储量变化、冰川均衡调整和海水比容效应这6个分量的贡献。联合反演结果显示,全球平均比容海平面变化为1.08±0.05 mm/a,与相关文献的结果相吻合。研究发现,联合测高数据和时变重力数据的反演方法能够一定程度上减弱GRACE Follow-On卫星时期海水质量变化被低估的现象。本文利用联合反演的结果研究了区域海平面变化,在大部分近海区域反演效果较好,这表明该方法可用于区域海平面变化的研究。  相似文献
