Globally Critical Infrastructure: The Unique Risks and Challenges
ABSTRACT Critical infrastructure is typically identified at the national level. However, disruption to certain infrastructure systems, facilities, and assets can have negative consequences for global societies. Such globally critical infrastructure entails a distinct risk profile for both countries dependent on the infrastructure, and countries that ...

Earth rotation variations observed by VLBI and the Wettzell “G” ring laser during the CONT17 campaign [PDF]
The VLBI (Very Long Baseline Interferometry) technique can provide the full set of parameters needed for the transformation between celestial and terrestrial reference frames with high accuracy.

Abstract High‐precision Earth Rotation Parameter (ERP) products often experience delays that range from several days to weeks. The use of precise forecasting models can effectively compensate for the impact of such delays. Based on a systematic analysis of the forecasting capabilities of the traditional harmonic least squares fitting and autoregressive

Estimation and Attribution of Horizontal Land Motion Measured by the Greenland GNSS Network
Abstract Horizontal land motion, as observed by geodetic techniques such as Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS), is generally dominated by tectonic plate movement. However, in regions that are currently or formerly glaciated, such as Greenland, the deformation of the solid Earth due to surface loading complicates the separation of tectonic and ...

Extragalactic VLBI at 89 GHZ [PDF]
Radio interferometry at 89 GHz with transcontinental baselines can probe the region of active galaxies and quasars where collimation of relativistic outflows occur on length scales of 1017–18cm. Three experiments have been conducted recently to demonstrate the feasability and importance of this investigation.

Tropospheric delay is a major error source for the high-accuracy Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) technique due to rapid water vapor variations. The Niell mapping function (NMF) and Global Mapping Function (GMF) are extensively applied to convert

A Review of Machine Learning‐Based Ionospheric Spatial and Temporal Modeling
Abstract The ionosphere introduces disturbances and errors in radio signals for satellite communication and navigation, requiring precise modeling to mitigate these effects. However, accurate ionospheric modeling faces challenges due to the complex spatio‐temporal variations caused by intricate coupling with the lower atmosphere and Earth's magnetic ...

Geodetic Evidence of Shallow Slow‐Slip Phenomena Beneath the Southern Ryukyu Forearc
Abstract While slow slip events (SSEs) are recognized as a ubiquitous phenomenon in subduction zones, accurately tracking the spatiotemporal distribution of shallow SSEs remains challenging. Here, we investigate the potential occurrence of shallow SSEs in the southern Ryukyu forearc at the western boundary of the Philippine Sea plate using 25 years of ...

Very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) is used for establishing global geodetic networks where the coordinates attain a 1-mm level of precision. Technique-dependent bias can degrade the VLBI positioning accuracy if it is present and unaccounted for ...

From the centers of quasars calculated to have velocities 10 times greater than that of light—the Einsteinian constant of the universe—astronomers are finding explanations of Doppler effect red shifts of emission. Very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) arrays have been used to examine the cores of seven known radio sources in space that are ...
