Modelling the global ocean tides: modern insights from FES2004
TL;DR: A review of the state-of-the-art in the field of finite element solutions (FES) atlases can be found in this paper, where the authors introduce the FES2004 tidal atlas and validate the model against in situ and satellite data.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: A variety of global ocean tide models have been developed since 1994, primarily as a consequence of analysis of the precise altimetric measurements from TOPEX/POSEIDON and as a result of parallel developments in numerical tidal modeling and data assimilation as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Elastic uplift in southeast Greenland due to rapid ice mass loss
Shfaqat Abbas Khan,John Wahr,Leigh A. Stearns,Gordon S. Hamilton,Tonie van Dam,Kristine M. Larson,Olivier Francis +6 more
TL;DR: This is the publisher's version, also available electronically from "http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com" as discussed by the authors. But it is not available in the UK.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stability comparison of two absolute gravimeters: optical versus atomic interferometers
TL;DR: In this article, the authors report the direct comparison between the stabilities of two mobile absolute gravimeters of different technology: the LNE-SYRTE Cold Atom Gravimeter and FG5X#216 of the Universite du Luxembourg.
Journal ArticleDOI
Geophysics From Terrestrial Time-Variable Gravity Measurements
Michel Van Camp,Olivier de Viron,Arnaud Watlet,Arnaud Watlet,Bruno Meurers,Olivier Francis,Corentin Caudron,Corentin Caudron +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the geophysical questions that can be addressed by ground gravimeters used to monitor time-variable gravity is presented, in relation to the instrumental characteristics, noise sources, and good practices.
