    Description: We review the historical, geological, tide-gauge, GPS and gravimetric evidence advanced in favour of or against continuing land uplift around Hudson Bay, Canada. After this, we reanalyse the tide-gauge and GPS data for Churchill using longer time series than those available to previous investigators. The dependence of the mean rate of relative sea-level change obtained on the length and mid-epoch of the observation interval considered is investigated by means of the newly developed linear-trend analysis diagram. For studying the shorter-period variability of the tide-gauge record, the continuous-wavelet transform is used. The mean rate of land uplift obtained from GPS is based on a new analysis using IGS solutions of GFZ. Furthermore, sea-level indicators from the Churchill region representing the relative sea-level history during the past 8000 a are included. Finally, the four types of observable are jointly inverted in terms of mantle viscosity. The optimum values are 3×10^20 Pa s and 1.6 × 10^22 Pa s for the upper- and lower-mantle viscosities, respectively.

    Description: The GRACE dual satellite mission (launched in March, 2002) offers the possibility of computing monthly highly accurate mean gravity fields over an expected lifetime of five years. Unfortunately, the quality of these monthly gravity field products does not yet reach the pre-launch expectations. Possible error sources might be insufficient instrument data processing and parameterization or modeling of short-term atmospheric and oceanic mass variations. Another candidate is the ocean tide model. Especially, incomplete subtraction (de-aliasing) of short period tides may be partially aliased into the monthly gravity field solutions. Therefore, we analyzed the difference of two ocean tide models (FES2004 and CSR 4.0) which are used at the GRACE Science Data System level-2 processing centers at GFZ Potsdam and CSR (Center for Space Research, Austin), respectively, and which may serve as a measure of the ocean tide model error. We have computed: a) straightforward monthly means of tidal elevation differences and b) simulations of tidal elevation differences at footpoints of GRACE A. The results of a) represent the differences of the monthly means of both tide models with respect to an uniform sampling (grid). The results of b) include the influence of spatially uneven sampling distribution (only along the orbit) and show that for the S2 and K2 tidal constituents, aliasing causes effects which cannot be neglected with respect to the presently achievable GRACE measurement accuracy for degrees n·7 (S2) and n·8 (K2).

    Description: This report studies the vertical crustal motion at tide gauges by analyzing GPS (Global Positioning System) height time series of about 370 GPS stations spanning 1994.0 to 2007.0. The procedure of generating a set of homogeneous GPS time series is described in detail. To estimate the vertical rate, the time series are modelled with seasonal (annual and semiannual) waves and step functions for jumps. To improve the quality of the time series, the ocean tide loading (OTL) corrections are renovated by replacing the OTL corrections derived from new ocean tides model directly on the solutions without re-analyzing the GPS data.
