LAGEOS geodetic analysis-SL7.1

摘要: Laser ranging measurements to the LAGEOS satellite from 1976 through 1989 are related via geodetic and orbital theories a variety of geodynamic parameters. The SL7.1 analyses explained this data set including estimation process for parameters such as Earth's gravitational constant (GM), those describing elasticity properties (Love numbers), temporally varying orientation (polar motion Delta UT1) tracking site horizontal tectonic motions. Descriptions reference systems, models, adopted constants provided; these framework within which solution takes place. Estimates temporal variations in non-conservative force included well states at monthly epochs. This information is useful further refining models used describe close-Earth behavior. intersite motions individual computed network adjustment scheme given. Tabulations eccentricities, summaries, estimated model parameters, polar motion, Earth rotation, station coordinate results also provided.
