Shape of the ocean surface and implications for the Earth's interior: GEOS-3 results [PDF]
A new set of 1 deg x 1 deg mean free air anomalies was used to construct a gravimetric geoid by Stokes' formula for the Indian Ocean. Utilizing such 1 deg x 1 deg geoid comparisons were made with GEOS-3 radar altimeter estimates of geoid height.

Satellite techniques for determining the geopotential for sea-surface elevations [PDF]
, 1984 Spaceborne altimetry with measurement accuracies of a few centimeters which has the potential to determine sea surface elevations necessary to compute accurate three-dimensonal geostrophic currents from traditional hydrographic observation is discussed ...

Global isostatic geoid anomalies for plate and boundary layer models of the lithosphere [PDF]
Commonly used one dimensional geoid models predict that the isostatic geoid anomaly over old ocean basins for the boundary layer thermal model of the lithosphere is a factor of two greater than that for the plate model.

Precision study of satellite levelling with using various models of geoid
E3S Web of Conferences, 2018 The main purpose of this study is comparison of orthometric heights of measuring points and the accuracy of these heights depending on selected geoid model and measurement method. In addition, for better understanding of the essence of conducted research,

Properties of the lithosphere and asthenosphere deduced from geoid observations [PDF]
Data from the GEOS-3 and SEASAT Satellites provided a very accurate geoid map over the oceans. Broad bathymetric features in the oceans such as oceanic swells and plateaus are fully compensated.

Precise geoid computation using Stokes-Helmert's scheme and strict integrals of topographic effects
Geodesy and Geodynamics, 2019 The high-precision local geoid model was computed based on the improved Stokes-Helmert′s boundary value problem and strict integrals of topographic effects. This proposed method involves three steps.

Power spectra of geoid undulations [PDF]
Data from spacecraft altimeters are expected to contribute to an improved determination of the marine geoid. To better define altimeter system design requirements for geoid recovery, amplitudes of geoid undulations at short wavelengths were examined ...

The geoid spectrum from altimetry [PDF]
Satellite altimetry information from the world's major oceans was analyzed to arrive at a geoid power spectrum. Using the equivalent of about 7 revolutions of data (mostly from GEOS-3) the power spectrum of the sea surface generally follows the expected ...
