Performance evaluation of novel accelerometers for future gravimetry missions
Dedicated satellite gravimetry missions from the beginning of the 21-st century have provided unique data on mass redistribution processes in the Earth system, e.g., melting of the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets, sea level changes, droughts, etc. Ongoing climate change underlines the need to con...

Dedicated satellite gravimetry missions from the beginning of the 21-st century have provided unique data on mass redistribution processes in the Earth system, e.g., melting of the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets, sea level changes, droughts, etc. Ongoing climate change underlines the need to continue this kind of measurements with enhanced concepts and sensors. For example, the Mass Change mission is planned to be launched within the next decade in a DLR-NASA partnership. The focus of this study is on the assessment of enhanced ACCs for future gravimetry missions. Drifts of the electrostatic accelerometers (EA) at low frequencies (< 1mHz) are one of the limiting factors in current space gravimetry missions. For this purpose, an enhanced EA with laser-interferometric readout, a so called "optical accelerometer", was modeled and its performance at Low Earth Orbit has been evaluated.
