Ries" Subject: SE21 session in Solid Earth Sciences (SE) at AOGS-AGU (WPGM) Dear Colleagues, The AOGS - AGU (WPGM) Joint Assembly will be held in Singapore, 13 to 17 August 2012. We would like to draw your attention in particular to session "SE21 Monitoring the large scale mass redistribution and surface displacement " This session is intended to discuss the mass transport between the atmosphere, ocean and solid earth results in the temporal variations in the Earth gravity field and the loading-induced deformation of the Earth. Recent space-borne observations, such as the GRACE mission, are providing extremely high precision temporal variations of the gravity field. The results from 9 years of GRACE data have shown significant annual large-scale vertical and horizontal displacements occurring over the Amazon, Himalayan region and South Asia, North Australia, Africa, and Russia with a few mm amplitude. Improved understanding from monitoring and modeling of the large-scale mass redistribution, and the Earth's response to that loading, are essential for all studies in the geosciences, in particular for determination of the Terrestrial Reference System (TRS), including geocenter motion. The session solicits contributions from analysis and comparison of models and the observations of crustal displacements from space geodetic techniques including GPS, SLR, DORIS, VLBI, GNSS, and inSAR. We invite you to consider submitting a paper for this session and participate in the meeting, or contact us directly if you have any questions. The abstract deadline is March 12, 2012.
