Degree dependence of Antarctic GIA correction for GRACE data
Ongoing mass changes in the Antarctic ice sheet have been observed as gravity changes by the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellites. The gravity signal also includes the component of the solid Earth’s response to surface mass change (Glacial Isostatic Adjustment, GIA). Therefore,...
