Wouters … and international science teams TU München, Institute of Astronomical and Physical Geodesy Consolidated science and user requirements for a next generation gravity field mission

GOCE User Workshop 2014, , Paris Contents  Motivation of this initiative  Overall set-up  Main objectives  Science and User Requirement Document  Theme-specific requirements  Preliminary consolidation results

GOCE User Workshop 2014, , Paris CHAMP GRACE GOCE GRACE-FO Motivation: Gravity field mission infrastructure ?

GOCE User Workshop 2014, , Paris Motivation  Several future gravity field studies (national, international) have resulted in quite different performance numbers as a target for a future gravity mission (2025+)  consolidation under the boundary condition of the technical feasibility required  Strong interest in a future gravity field mission (beyond GRACE FO) must be expressed by the user communities.

GOCE User Workshop 2014, , Paris Motivation International activity initiated by GGOS Satellite Mission Working Group (SMWG) IAG SC 2.3: Dedicated Satellite Gravity Missions IAG SC 2.6: Gravity and Mass Displacements under the umbrella of IUGG and consultation by Space Agencies with the special focus on „Consolidation of Science and User Requirements“ documented in a Science and User Requirement Document.

GOCE User Workshop 2014, , Paris Objectives:  Coming to a consolidated view on the science and user requirements within the international user community, represented by the TSGs (decoupled from mission requirements or technical feasibility).  Identification of research fields that could not be tackled by current gravity missions.  Evaluation of the added value (qualitatively and quantitatively) of these scenarios with respect to science return.  In addition to pure science objectives, also practical applications, services shall be considered (“science for society”). Objectives & output of this initiative Output: 1.Consolidated Science and User Requirement Document (SRD) 2.Expression of need by user community, e.g., by IUGG resolution

GOCE User Workshop 2014, , Paris Cryosphere requirements vs. mission scenarios

GOCE User Workshop 2014, , Paris Ocean: science and societal requirements Minimum requirement: Continuation of GRACE/GRACE-FO time series with increased spatial resolution Global and regional sea level change Estimating ocean heat content uptake (particularly deep) Better understanding of large-scale processes: e.g. ENSO, MOC, AMO Initialization and constraint of ocean and climate models Mean – 1 cm at d/o 200 MDT assimilation for operational ocean forecasting Ambitious requirement: 1 cm monthly at d/o 200 Monitoring Atlantic meridional over-turning circulation (MOC) Dynamics of coastal sea level variability and boundary processes Dynamics of the Southern Ocean – transport, identification/tracking of ACC fronts Estimation of barotropic component of ocean circulation

GOCE User Workshop 2014, , Paris Solid Earth: main research objectives 1. Seismic cycle: M w 7 earthquakes – Emphasis on subduction zones, undersea events – M w 7: highly destructive – follow aftershocks sequence? 2. Glacial Isostatic Adjustment – Needed for assessing ice mass balance, sea level budget – Identify low viscosity zones 3. Continental geodynamics and tectonic motions – Mountain building, oceanic ridges uplift 4. Underground fluids and their interaction with the solid Earth – Water, oil and minerals extraction – Induced seismicity Studying these topics requires to develop a global geodynamic model of the Earth, also including mantle and maybe core processes. Societal benefits: natural hazards, climate change, natural resources management

GOCE User Workshop 2014, , Paris Preliminary Results: Consolidated Science and User Requirements Threshold scenario Monthly: d/o 50 (400 km): 5 mm / 0.5 mm/yr e.w.h. d/o 100 (200 km): 10 cm / 1 cm/yr e.w.h. Daily: d/o 50: 50 mm e.w.h. In combination with GRACE & GRACE-FO more reliable estimates of trends Improved spatial resolution Improved temporal resolution: reduction of aliasing Target scenario Monthly: d/o 50 (400 km): 0.5 mm / 0.05 mm/yr e.w.h. d/o 100 (200 km): 1 cm / 0.1 cm/yr e.w.h.
