The admittance spectrum quantifies that the LGD response to range‐acceleration is systematically larger at lower frequencies, due to the increased contribution of centrifugal acceleration. We find that the correlation and admittance spectra are stationary (i.e., are independent of time, satellite altitude, and gravity strength) and, therefore, can be determined a priori with high fidelity. We determine the spectral transfer function and the equivalent time domain filter. Using both synthetic and actual GRACE data, we demonstrate that in situ LGD can be estimated via the transfer function with an estimation error of 0.15 nm/s2, whereas the actual GRACE data error is around 1.0 nm/s2. We present an application of LGD data to surface water storage changes in large basins such as Amazon, Congo, Parana, and Mississippi by processing 11 years of GRACE data. Runoff routing models are calibrated directly using LGD data. Our technique demonstrates a new way of using GRACE data by forward modeling of various geophysical models and in‐orbit comparison with such GRACE in situ data.]]> Tue 16 Jul 2019 12:19:45 AEST ]]> Gravitational changes of the Earth's free oscillation from earthquakes: Theory and feasibility study using GRACE inter-satellite tracking https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:35813 Thu 05 Dec 2019 15:27:11 AEDT ]]> GRACE gravitational measurements of tsunamis after the 2004, 2010, and 2011 great earthquakes https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:40035 2. There is good agreement between GRACE measurements and tsunami models for the three events. Complementarily to buoys, ocean bottom pressure sounders, and satellite altimeters, GRACE is sensitive to the long-wavelength spatial scale of tsunamis and provides an independent source of information for assessing alternate early earthquake and tsunami models. Our study demonstrates an innovative way of applying GRACE and GRACE Follow-On data to detect transient geophysical mass changes which cannot be observed by the conventional monthly Level-2 and mascon solutions.]]> Fri 15 Jul 2022 10:11:21 AEST ]]>
