Introduction

The sea-level rise and climate change are always in the news. We hear that the two major causes of global sea-level rise are thermal expansion caused by warming of the ocean (since water expands as it warms) and increased melting of land-based ice, such as glaciers and ice sheets. I guess you have many questions that are still with no answers... I want to quantify the contribution of the continental freshwater discharge to the sea level rise: how can I estimate this figure? I would like to investigate the changes in groundwater resources over my data-poor region, and I wonder how I can do that without in-situ data? The aim of this course is to let you gain familiarity with modern geodetic techniques used in many fields of Earth Sciences such as solid Earth, the ocean, terrestrial hydrosphere, the cryosphere, and the climate system. We’ll understand the interaction between the mass distribution/redistribution phenomena within the Earth system and the geodetic measurements. Then, we’ll explore the capability of the geodetic sensors (e.g., GPS – global positioning system) to monitoring the changes in the Earth system. We’ll use theoretical and practical activities so that you’ll have an understanding of the topic. The course targets students in many fields that are interested in the knowledge of the fundamental geodetic concepts and an overview of the applications of the geodetic techniques in Earth Sciences. Upon completion of this course, the learners will be able to: Processing satellite gravimetry data and estimate the water storage changes; Apply the terrestrial water storage with ancillary datasets to assess groundwater changes; Discern between the different types of environmental loading and use GPS to monitoring changes in the Earth’s shape; Combine different satellite products to close the water budget; etc.
