Global Geopotential Models assessment in Ecuador based on geoid heights and geopotential values
Since the 1960s, the analysis of disturbed satellite orbits to infer Earth’s gravity field functionals has been an important element in determining the Earth’s gravitational field. The long wavelengths of the gravitational field are recovered through the

Validation of the Aura Microwave Limb Sounder temperature and geopotential height measurements [PDF]
Global satellite observations of temperature and geopotential height (GPH) from the Microwave Limb Sounder (MLS) on the EOS Aura spacecraft are discussed. The precision, resolution, and accuracy of the data produced by the MLS version 2.2 processing algorithms are quantified, and recommendations for data screening are made. Temperature precision is 1 K

Eigen microstates and their evolution of global ozone at different geopotential heights [PDF]
Studies on stratospheric ozone have attracted much attention due to its serious impacts on climate changes and its important role as a tracer of Earth’s global circulation. Tropospheric ozone as a main atmospheric pollutant damages human health as well as the growth of vegetation.

Estimation and Investigation of Geopotential and Scale heights over Iseyin, Nigeria [PDF]
In this study, the monthly averaged daily mean temperature, relative humidity and surface pressure data obtained from the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) during the period of thirty eight (1979 – 2016) years were used to estimate the monthly variation of geopotential and scale heights for Iseyin located in the South Western ...

Estimation of Geopotential Value W0 for the Geoid and Local Vertical Datum Parameters
Unification of the global vertical datum has been a key problem to be solved for geodesy over a long period, and the main challenge for unifying the global vertical datum system is to determine the geopotential value W0 of the geoid and to calculate the ...
