    ITG-CHAMP01: a CHAMP gravity field model from short kinematic arcs over a one-year observation period

    Global gravity field models have been determined based on kinematic orbits covering an observation period of one year beginning from March 2002. Three different models have been derived up to a maximum degree of

    On the Iterative Solution of Ill-Conditioned Normal Equations by the Use of Lanczos Methods

    The determination of the earth’s exterior gravity field from noisy satellite observations lacks stability, due to the downward continuation process and due to data gaps. This property translates into an ill-co...
