Book Direct Evaluation of the Earth s Gravity Anomaly Field from Orbital Analysis of Artificial Earth Satellites

Download or read book Direct Evaluation of the Earth s Gravity Anomaly Field from Orbital Analysis of Artificial Earth Satellites written by Gabriel F. T. Obenson and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The equations of motion of an artificial earth satellite are derived in terms of gravity anomalies. In practice, an adjustment using these equations should give more correct values for the gravity anomalies. To check the adjustment equations derived, a set of 184 15 degree x 15 degree equal area mean gravity anomalies, together with the coordinates of some ground stations and Keplerian elements of certain satellites were assumed correct. Satellite orbits were generated, their positions being given by topocentric right ascension, declination, and range, assuming their motion to be affected only by the earth's gravitational potential. Errors were introduced into the assumed correct elements, new orbits were generated, and an adjustment was done to recover the introduced errors. Two solutions to recover the input anomaly errors were done. (Author).

Book Satellite Gravimetry and the Solid Earth

Download or read book Satellite Gravimetry and the Solid Earth written by Mehdi Eshagh and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2020-09-15 with total page 502 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Satellite Gravimetry and the Solid Earth: Mathematical Foundations presents the theories behind satellite gravimetry data and their connections to solid Earth. It covers the theory of satellite gravimetry and data analysis, presenting it in a way that is accessible across geophysical disciplines. Through a discussion of satellite measurements and the mathematical concepts behind them, the book shows how various satellite measurements, such as satellite orbit, acceleration, vector gravimetry, gravity gradiometry, and integral energy methods can contribute to an understanding of the gravity field and solid Earth geophysics. Bridging the gap between geodesy and geophysics, this book is a valuable resource for researchers and students studying gravity, gravimetry and a variety of geophysical and Earth Science fields. Presents mathematical concepts in a pedagogic and straightforward way to enhance understanding across disciplines Explains how a variety of satellite data can be used for gravity field determination and other geophysical applications Covers a number of problems related to gravimetry and the gravity field, as well as the effects of atmospheric and topographic factors on the data Addresses the regularization method for solving integral equations, isostasy based on gravimetric and flexure methods, elastic thickness, and sub-lithospheric stress

Book The Gravity Field of the Earth

Download or read book The Gravity Field of the Earth written by Michele Caputo and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 2016-06-03 with total page 217 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: International Geophysics Series, Volume 10: The Gravity Field of the Earth: From Classical and Modern Methods explores the theory of the gravity field of the earth based on both classical and modern methods. Classical method involves observations of gravity taken over the earth's surface, while the modern method uses observations of variation of orbital elements of artificial satellites caused by the gravity field of the earth. This book is organized into two parts encompassing 12 chapters. Part I describes the solution of physical problems that are treated as Dirichlet problems or solved by means of integral equations. This part also deals with the determination of the geoid form from ground gravity measurements using the Stokes formula. The method of obtaining the Stokes formula by means of an integral equation is also outlined. Part II contains modern mathematical techniques developed to utilize the observations of artificial satellites for geodetic purposes. This book could be used as a textbook for students in the fields of geodesy, geophysics, or astronomy.

Book The Use of Artificial Satellites for Geodesy

Download or read book The Use of Artificial Satellites for Geodesy written by Soren W. Henriksen and published by American Geophysical Union. This book was released on 1972 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Published by the American Geophysical Union as part of the Geophysical Monograph Series, Volume 15. This monograph contains 34 communications presented at the Third International Symposium on the Use of Artificial Satellites for Geodesy in 1971, and 4 invited papers on subjects that complement the others and provide continuity. All contributions represent the most recent findings in the theoretical and applied fields of satellite geodesy, including new instrumentation (satellite sensors and ground equipment) of potential use in satellite geodesy. The two preceding symposiums were held at Washington, D.C., in 1962 and at Athens, Greece, in 1965. The Proceedings of the first were published by North-Holland Publishing Company, Amsterdam, in 1963, and the Proceedings of the second by the National Technical University, Athens, in 1967. The prime mover behind both was George Veis, and his continuing dedication to this subject was in large measure responsible for scheduling this third symposium.

Book Analysis of the Gravity Field

Download or read book Analysis of the Gravity Field written by Fernando Sansò and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-06-09 with total page 542 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This textbook presents a comprehensive treatment of the theory and implementation of inverse methods in the analysis and interpretation of Earth’s gravity field. By restricting their consideration to a local rather than global level, the authors focus on the use of observations and data that are more sensitive to local mass anomalies. All necessary theoretical aspects are reformulated in terms of a Euclidean framework so that less complex tools from mathematical analysis can be utilized. Divided into three parts, the text begins with a review of basic mathematical properties of gravitation, computing gravity from mass distributions, and relevant methods from Fourier analysis. In the second part of the text, the Earth’s gravity field and its properties are introduced, and the preprocessing and processing of gravity data are explored. Finally, elementary inverse theory is discussed, after which the general inversion problem is considered via application of both the Tikhonov deterministic approach and a stochastic MCMC model. Throughout, examples and exercises are provided to both clarify material and to illustrate real-word applications for readers. Analysis of the Gravity Field: Direct and Inverse Problems is carefully written to be accessible to both mathematicians and geophysicists without sacrificing mathematical rigor. Readers should have a familiarity with the basics of mathematical analysis, as well as some knowledge of statistics and probability theory. Detailed proofs of more advanced results are relegated to appendices so that readers can concentrate on solution algorithms.

Book Satellite Gravity and the Geosphere

Download or read book Satellite Gravity and the Geosphere written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 1997-10-02 with total page 127 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For the past three decades, it has been possible to measure the earth's static gravity from satellites. Such measurements have been used to address many important scientific problems, including the earth's internal structure, and geologically slow processes like mantle convection. In principle, it is possible to resolve the time-varying component of the gravity field by improving the accuracy of satellite gravity measurements. These temporal variations are caused by dynamic processes that change the mass distribution in the earth, oceans, and atmosphere. Acquisition of improved time-varying gravity data would open a new class of important scientific problems to analysis, including crustal motions associated with earthquakes and changes in groundwater levels, ice dynamics, sea-level changes, and atmospheric and oceanic circulation patterns. This book evaluates the potential for using satellite technologies to measure the time-varying component of the gravity field and assess the utility of these data for addressing problems of interest to the earth sciences, natural hazards, and resource communities.
