The GOCE mission, exploiting for the first time the concept of satellite gradiometry, promises
to estimate the Earth's gravitational field from space with unprecedented accuracy and …

New ESA missions dedicated to the observation of the Earth from space, like the gravity-
gradiometry mission GOCE and the radar altimetry mission CRYOSAT 2, foster research …

Satellite missions dedicated to the estimation of the gravity field and its time variation, like
GOCE, have drawn new attention on inverse gravimetric problems and, in particular, on the …

The global coverage of a satellite allows us to investigate areas that are difficult to access
due to remoteness or ruggedness. We intend to use the GOCE gradiometric observations to …

Satellite missions dedicated to the estimation of the gravity field and its variation, like
GRACE and GOCE, have drawn new attention on inverse gravimetric problems and, in …

The boundary between Earth's crust and mantle is commonly modelled as a discontinuity
surface, the so-called Moho. Although in some regions of the world this model may be too …

The main intention of the contribution is the computation and the comparison of five different
topographic-isostatic effects and the analysis of the influence on all components of the …

Results obtained as a solution to the geodetic boundary-value problem, where two different
sources of input boundary data are combined together, are presented. On the upper part of …

In the gravimetric approach to determine the Moho depth an isostatic hypothesis can be
used. The Vening Meinesz–Moritz isostatic hypothesis is the recent theory for such a …

With the upcoming ESA satellite mission GOCE, gravitational gradients (2nd derivatives of
the Earth's gravitational potential) will be measured globally, except for the polar gaps. An …
