Plate Motion of India and Interseismic Strain in the Nepal Himalaya from GPS and DORIS Measurements

TL;DR: In this article, the authors analyzed geodetically estimated deformation across the Nepal Himalaya in order to determine the geodetic rate of shortening between Southern Tibet and India, and determined the pole of rotation of the Indian tectonic plate to be located in ITRF2000 at 51.409±1.556°E, with an angular velocity of 0.483±0.015°.
Journal ArticleDOI

The angular velocities of the plates and the velocity of Earth's centre from space geodesy

TL;DR: In this article, a set of relative plate angular velocities, called GEODVEL (for GEODesy VELocity) is presented, which is based on the estimation of the position of the Earth's center and the assignment of sites to plates.
Journal ArticleDOI

GPS precise tracking of TOPEX/POSEIDON: Results and implications

TL;DR: A reduced dynamic filtering strategy that exploits the unique geometric strength of the Global Positioning System to minimize the effects of force model errors has yielded orbit solutions for TOPEX/POSEIDON which appear accurate to better than 3 cm (1 σ) in the radial component.
Journal ArticleDOI

First assessment of GPS-based reduced dynamic orbit determination on TOPEX/Poseidon

TL;DR: The reduced dynamic Global Positioning System (GPS) tracking technique has been applied for the first time as part of the GPS experiment on TOPEX/Poseidon as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

One-Centimeter Orbit Determination for Jason-1: New GPS-Based Strategies

TL;DR: The U.S. and French Jason-1 satellite is carrying a state-of-the-art GPS receiver to support precise orbit determination (POD) requirements as discussed by the authors.
