Topographic gravimetric effects in earth sciences: Review of origin, significance and implications

P Vajda, I Foroughi, P Vaníček, R Kingdon… - Earth-Science …, 2020 - Elsevier
We present a comprehensive view of the origin, significance and implications of topographic
effects in gravimetry. These are gravitational effects of topographic masses that are present …

Data requirements for the determination of a sub-centimetre geoid

I Foroughi, M Goli, S Pagiatakis, S Ferguson… - Earth-Science …, 2023 - Elsevier
Recent applications in Earth sciences require geoid models to be determined with a sub-

Regional gravity field refinement for (quasi-) geoid determination based on spherical radial basis functions in Colorado

Q Liu, M Schmidt, L Sánchez, M Willberg - Journal of geodesy, 2020 - Springer
This study presents a solution of the '1 cm Geoid Experiment'(Colorado Experiment) using
spherical radial basis functions (SRBFs). As the only group using SRBFs among the …

Empirical comparison between stochastic and deterministic modifiers over the French Auvergne geoid computation test-bed

R Goyal, J Ågren, WE Featherstone, LE Sjöberg… - Survey …, 2022 - Taylor & Francis
Since 2006, several different groups have computed geoid and/or quasigeoid (quasi/geoid)

Contribution of GRACE satellite mission to the determination of orthometric/normal heights corrected for their dynamics—a case study of Poland

M Szelachowska, W Godah, J Krynski - Remote sensing, 2022 - mdpi.com
Physical heights were traditionally determined without considering the dynamic processes of
the Earth induced from temporal mass variations. The Gravity Recovery and Climate …

The effect of anomalous global lateral topographic density on the geoid-to-quasigeoid separation

R Tenzer, W Chen, S Rathnayake, M Pitoňák - Journal of Geodesy, 2021 - Springer
The geoid can be computed from the quasigeoid by applying the geoid-to-quasigeoid
separation. The geoid-to-quasigeoid separation is also needed for a vertical datum …

On determination of the geoid from measured gradients of the Earth's gravity field potential

P Novák, M Šprlák, M Pitoňák - Earth-Science Reviews, 2021 - Elsevier
The geoid is an equipotential surface of the static Earth's gravity field which plays a
fundamental role in definition of physical heights related to the mean sea level (orthometric …

Towards an International Height Reference System: insights from the Colorado geoid experiment using AUSGeoid computation methods

SJ Claessens, MS Filmer - Journal of geodesy, 2020 - Springer
We apply the AUSGeoid data processing and computation methodologies to data provided
for the International Height Reference System (IHRS) Colorado experiment as part of the …

Effect of a high-resolution global crustal model on gravimetric geoid determination: a case study in a mountainous region

RA Abbak - Studia geophysica et geodaetica, 2020 - Springer
A precise gravimetric geoid model is determined by using Stokes formula assuming that
there is no topography above the geoid. Then, the geoid model is simply corrected by …

Investigating the congruence between gravimetric geoid models over India

R Goyal, SJ Claessens, WE Featherstone… - Journal of Surveying …, 2023 - ascelibrary.org
