• Determination of the lunar body tide from global laser altimetry data 

      Thor, Robin N.ORCIDiD; Kallenbach, Reinald; Christensen, Ulrich R.ORCIDiD; Gläser, PhilippORCIDiD; Stark, AlexanderORCIDiD; Steinbrügge, GregorORCIDiD; Oberst, Jürgen (Journal of Geodesy, 2020-12-23)
      We use global data from the Lunar Orbiter Laser Altimeter (LOLA) to retrieve the lunar tidal Love number h2 and find h2 = 0.0387 ± 0.0025. This result is in agreement with previous estimates from laser altimetry using ...
    • Exploring planets and asteroids with 6DoF sensors: Utopia and realism 

      Bernauer, FelixORCIDiD; Garcia, Raphael F.; Murdoch, Naomi; Dehant, Veronique; Sollberger, David; Schmelzbach, CedricORCIDiD; Stähler, Simon; Wassermann, Joachim; Igel, HeinerORCIDiD; Cadu, Alexandre; Mimoun, David; Ritter, Birgit; Filice, Valerio; Karatekin, Özgür; Ferraioli, Luigi; Robertsson, Johan O. A.; Giardini, DomenicoORCIDiD; Lecamp, Guillaume; Guattari, Frederic; Bonnefois, Jean-Jacques; de Raucourt, Sebastien (Earth, Planets and Space, 2020-12-21)
      A 6 degrees-of-freedom (6DoF) sensor, measuring three components of translational acceleration and three components of rotation rate, provides the full history of motion it is exposed to. In Earth sciences 6DoF sensors ...
    • Global tide simulations with ICON-O: testing the model performance on highly irregular meshes 

      Logemann, KaiORCIDiD; Linardakis, Leonidas; Korn, PeterORCIDiD; Schrum, CorinnaORCIDiD (Ocean Dynamics, 2020-12-08)
      The global tide is simulated with the global ocean general circulation model ICON-O using a newly developed tidal module, which computes the full tidal potential. The simulated coastal M2 amplitudes, derived by a discrete ...
    • Interactions between barotropic tides and mesoscale processes in deep ocean and shelf regions 

      Stanev, Emil VassilevORCIDiD; Ricker, Marcel (Ocean Dynamics, 2020-03-14)
      The interactions between barotropic tides and mesoscale processes were studied using the results of a numerical model in which tidal forcing was turned on and off. The research area covered part of the East Atlantic Ocean, ...
    • Tide-induced magnetic signals and their errors derived from CHAMP and Swarm satellite magnetometer observations 

      Saynisch-Wagner, JanORCIDiD; Baerenzung, Julien; Hornschild, Aaron; Irrgang, ChristopherORCIDiD; Thomas, Maik (Earth, Planets and Space, 2021-12-20)
      Satellite-measured tidal magnetic signals are of growing importance. These fields are mainly used to infer Earth’s mantle conductivity, but also to derive changes in the oceanic heat content. We present a new Kalman ...
