Dear Colleagues, 

As part of the 2019 Fall Meeting of the AGU that will be held in San Francisco 
09-13 December 2019, we would like to draw your attention to the session on: 

G016: Reference Frames: Determination, Usage and Application 

The description of the session is given below. 

We are looking forward to your contribution by submitting an abstract to our session. 

Please note the  Abstract submission deadline: 31 July 2019 23:59 EDT/03:59 +1 GMT.

G016: Reference Frames: Determination, Usage and Application:

The quantification of many geophysical phenomena, e.g. sea level variation, 
co-and post-seismic deformation, glacial isostatic adjustment, loading effects, 
but also precise orbit determination of artificial satellites, rely on the availability
of a global terrestrial reference frame, such as the ITRF. The session solicits
contributions from scientists determining or using global reference frames for their
applications, focusing on error budgets and other limiting factors. Contributions from
analysts of space geodetic techniques (VLBI, SLR, GNSS, DORIS) and their combination
in preparation for the ITRF2020, taking into account improved model updates are welcome. 
Papers on the exploitation of ITRF2014 are also encouraged.
