Abstract Since Kepler, Newton and Huygens in the seventeenth century, geodesy has been
concerned with determining the figure, orientation and gravitational field of the Earth. With …

Abstract Study area Iran. Study focus Iran, once a pioneer of sustainable water
management, is currently facing water bankruptcy. Aggressive exhaustion of non-renewable …

The amount of water stored on continents is an important constraint for water mass and
energy exchanges in the Earth system and exhibits large inter-annual variability at both local …

Lake Urmia, located in the North West of Iran, was once the most extensive permanent
hypersaline lake in the world. Unsustainable water management in response to increasing …

A new approach to recover time-variable gravity fields from satellite laser ranging (SLR) is
presented. It takes up the concept of lumped coefficients by representing the temporal …

ESA's Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) orbited the Earth
between 2009 and 2013 for the determination of the static part of Earth's gravity field. The …

The strong noise of satellite-based Time-Variable Gravity (TVG) field is often suppressed by
applying the averaging filters. However, how to appropriately compromise the data blurring …

We examined the first‐ever laser ranging interferometer (LRI) measurements of inter‐
satellite tracking acquired by Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) Follow‐On …

The emergence of quantum technologies, including cold atom-based accelerometers, offers
an opportunity to improve the performances of space geodesy missions. In this context …
