Upload to the IGS: http://www.isgeoid.polimi.it/Geoid/Antartica/antartica_g.html The basic purpose of the given work is the construction of the gravimetric quasigeoid from gravimetry data and Sea Surface Topography (SST) model based on altimetry data from 6 satellite missions for the total period of 15 years for the Antarctic region. Another goal...

Accurate estimation of ongoing Antarctic ice mass change is important to predict future ice mass loss and subsequent sea level rise. Over the past two decades, Antarctic ice mass changes have been observed by the gravity recovery and climate experiment (GRACE) gravity mission, but the low spatial resolution of GRACE has limited understanding of gla...

A detailed understanding of how the Antarctic Ice Sheet (AIS) responds to a warming climate is needed because it will most likely increase the rate of global mean sea level rise. Time-variable satellite gravimetry, realized by the GRACE and GRACE-FO missions, is directly sensitive to AIS mass changes. However, gravimetric mass balances are subject...

Geodynamic processes in Antarctica such as glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) and post-seismic deformation are measured by geodetic observations such as GNSS and satellite gravimetry. GNSS measurements have been comprising continuous measurements as well as episodic measurements since the mid-1990s. The estimated velocities typically reach an accur...

Time-variable gravity measurements from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and GRACE-Follow On (GRACE-FO) missions and satellite altimetry measurements from CryoSat-2 enable independent mass balance estimates of the Earth’s glaciers and ice sheets. Both approaches vary in terms of their retrieval principles and signal-to-noise char...

Plain Language Summary Sea level rise, due to the addition of meltwater from glaciers and ice‐sheets in the oceans and to the thermal expansion of seawater, is commonly used as an indicator for climate change. The sea level budget provides information on temporal changes in one or more components of the budget, on process understanding, on missing...
