Determination of crustal motions using satellite laser ranging [PDF]
Satellite laser ranging has matured over the last decade into one of the essential space geodesy techniques. It has demonstrated centimeter site positioning and millimeter per year velocity determinations in a frame tied dynamically to the mass center of

Proposal for an Optical Test of the Einstein Equivalence Principle
, 2019 The Einstein Equivalence Principle (EEP) underpins all metric theories of gravity. Its key element is the local position invariance of non-gravitational experiments, which entails the gravitational red-shift.

Geophysical interpretation of satellite laser ranging measurements of crustal movement in California [PDF]
As determined by satellite laser ranging the rate of contraction of a 900 kilometer baseline between sites located near Quincy in northern California and San Diego in southern California is about 61 to 65 mm/yr with a formal uncertainty of about 10 mm/yr.

Combination of GNSS and SLR observations using satellite co-locations [PDF]
, 2018 Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) observations to Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) satellites may be used for several purposes. On one hand, the range measurement may be used as an independent validation for satellite orbits derived solely from GNSS

18.6-yr tidal variations in J2 observed from 48-yr satellite laser ranging (SLR)
Geophysical Journal InternationalSUMMARY Analysis of the 48-yr of satellite laser ranging data of multiple satellites shows that long-term variations in the Earth's dynamical oblateness represented by the second-degree zonal harmonic J2 is best characterized by the superposition of a quadratic trend, 10.5- and 18.6-yr variations.
