(author), Jäggi, Adrian (author), Mayer-Gürr, Torsten (author), Sebera, Josef (author), Visser, P.N.A.M. (author), Zehentner, Norbert (author)It is of great interest to numerous geophysical studies that the time series of global gravity field models derived from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) data remains uninterrupted after the end of this mission. With this in mind, some institutes have been spending efforts to estimate gravity field models from alternative...journal article 2016
