Sea-level fingerprints emergent from GRACE mission data

Surendra Adhikari, Erik R. Ivins, Thomas Frederikse, Felix W. Landerer, and Lambert Caron

Data sets

Changes in relative sea-level, geoid height, and bedrock displacement derived from the Release-06 GRACE Level-2 monthly Stokes coefficients S. Adhikari, E. R. Ivins, T. Frederikse, F. W. Landerer, and L. Caron https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/8UC8IR

Short summary

We compute monthly solutions of changes in relative sea level, geoid height, and vertical bedrock displacement and uncertainties therein for the period April 2002–August 2016. These are based on the Release-06 GRACE Level-2 Stokes coefficients distributed by three premier data processing centers: CSR, GFZ, and JPL. Solutions are provided with and without Earth's rotational feedback included and in both the center-of-mass and center-of-figure reference frames.
