Summary & conclusion

• GRACE will provide regional estimates of variation in total mass i.e. the sum of mantle flow of the Glacial Isostatic Adjustment and contemporary ice mass balance.

• In the near future, CRYOSAT will monitor surface elevation change.

• FGI continues gravity & GPS program

• absolute gravity, CGPS, Cryosat, and GRACE all sense past and/or present changes in the ice mass.

• They however have shortcomings and observational errors, and are also sensitive to other signals: say, tectonics (gravity, GPS) or variation in atmospheric and ocean mass (GRACE).

Summary & conclusion

• Using them in combination provides powerful redundancy checks and the possibility to estimate/eliminate unwanted signals and modelling errors.
