Why Simulations Matter for the Mass Change and Geosciences International Constellation (MAGIC)
For more than two decades, satellites have been tracking how Earth's water moves—whether it's ice melting, groundwater levels changing, or sea levels rising. The original Gravity...
Detecting Large River Sedimentation Using GRACE/GRACE-FO Data: Insights from the Amazon River
Terrestrial sediments transported by rivers are essential for coastal ecosystems and human livelihoods. However, traditional methods, both in-situ measurements and satellite...
The NEROGRAV “almost” Spring School 2025 took place from Monday, March 10th to Friday, March 14th in Neustadt an der Weinstrasse. More than fifty people took part in the event,...
Satellite gravimetry improves land surface model simulations
Satellite gravimetry has great potential for improving numerical Earth system models that simulate Earth system processes and the interactions between its components, e.g. between...

Monitoring Caspian Sea Level Change from Satellite Altimetry and GRACE/GRACE-FO Gravimetry
The Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and GRACE Follow-On (GRACE-FO) satellite missions have provided a revolutionary tool for measuring changes of the Earth’s...
Understanding Water Storage Dynamics in Afghanistan: An Integrated Perspective
Water is a vital resource for livelihood and development, yet its availability is increasingly at risk due to climate change and anthropogenic activities. More than 80% of...
Calibration and Characterisation of GRACE-FO Magnetometers
Scientific satellites for measuring the Earth's magnetic field such as CHAMP (2000 to 2010) and Swarm (since 2013) contain a number of special instruments (scalar magnetometers,...
High-resolution groundwater storage changes from GRACE/GRACE-FO using assimilation models and hydrogeological observations
Using assimilation models and hydrogeological observations, a team from the Polish Geological Institute and the Space Research Center of the Polish Academy of Sciences has...
