The GravityGravity is also known as the force of gravity or mass attraction. Gravity is the force that two or more bodies exert on each other due to their mass. The best-known gravitational force is the Earth's gravitational pull. It causes bodies on earth to f... Information Service (GravIS) of the GFZ provides processed GRACE satellite data on large-scale mass transport processes. The aim is to enable applications of the satellite missions in the disciplines of hydrology, oceanography and glaciology. In the portal, both time series and spatial distributions of changes in polar ice masses, terrestrially stored water and oceanic ground pressure can be explored interactively and visually, and the underlying data can be downloaded directly.
