Tidal pulse of rivers

Tidal pulse of rivers

The research gap Ocean tides play a significant role on ocean circulation, coastal processes and mass variations. Tides are generated from the gravitational interaction between Earth, Moon and Sun, which typically results in two high and two low tides observed each day. Satellite observations have vastly expanded our understanding of ocean tides. In 2022, the Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SW ...[Read More]

From Quasars to Coordinates: How VLBI Measures Earth’s Shape and Motion

From Quasars to Coordinates: How VLBI Measures Earth’s Shape and Motion

Imagine determining the position of a point on Earth with millimeter precision using radio signals from celestial objects billions of light-years away. This may sound like science fiction, but it is exactly what Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) allows scientists to do. What is VLBI? Long before satellites and digital maps, people looked to the sky and used celestial objects—most commonly t ...[Read More]
