利用GPS动态PPP技术求解海潮负荷位移

受特殊海岸线及复杂海底地形的影响,目前发布的全球海潮模型在局部沿海地区差异较大,需利用其他大地测量手段直接测定沿海地区的海潮负荷位移参数。GPS技术因具有全天候、精度高、成本低等优势,已成为获取海潮负荷位移参数的有效手段。本文基于GPS技术监测测站三维位移变化的灵敏度高于监测48个海潮参数的灵敏度这一基本思想,改进了利用GPS精密单点定位(PPP)技术估计48个海潮调和参数的方法,直接逐历元求解三维海潮负荷位移变化,再利用调和分析方法提取主要潮波(M2、S2、N2、K2、K1、O1、P1、Q1)的海潮负荷位移建模参数(振幅与相位)。利用12个香港连续运行参考站(CORS)8年的GPS观测数据,计算各测站的海潮负荷位移建模参数。与传统方法比较,本文方法可有效加速K1潮波在东西方向的收敛。将GPS海潮负荷位移建模参数估值与中国近海海潮模型值比较,发现除S2、K2和K1潮波的均方根误差较大外,其他潮波的均方根误差均小于1.5mm。将香港2008—2014年验潮站数据反演的潮波参数与海潮模型值比较,结果表明:GPS与验潮站数据反演的潮波参数均与中国近海海潮模型及HAMTIDE2011.11A全球海潮模型符合较好,验证了GPS PPP反演海潮负荷位移的有效性。采用GPS PPP估计的8个潮波的振幅与相位值替换全球海潮模型中对应的潮波值,进行海潮负荷效应改正,可减弱GPS长时间序列中的半周年信号。     

南极中山站重力潮汐观测的海潮负荷效应

综合分析了LaCoste-Romberg(LCR)ET21高精度弹簧重力仪1998年12月26日至2000年1月9日在南极中山站的重力潮汐观测资料，采用目前普遍使用的Schwiderski、Csr3.0和Fes96.2全球海潮模型研究中山站重力潮汐观测的海潮负荷改正问题。结果表明在南极地区，目前的海潮模型存在较大的不确定性，还不足以精密确定该区域的海潮负荷改正。经海潮改正后，重力潮汐观测结果与潮汐理论值之间还存在比较大的差异，观测的周日（01）和半日（M2）潮波重力振幅因子与相应的理论值之间的平均偏差分别为3．8％和7．8％。南极地区附近海域海水的变化半导致该地区海潮负荷响应非常明显的季节性系统变化。     

不同海潮模型对闽海潮负荷位移估计的影响

针对新型海潮模型对区域海潮负荷位移估计的影响分析不足的问题,该文依托福建省基础地理信息中心A级GNSS网,基于八大系列全球海潮模型的最新版本和区域海潮模型NAO99Jb,分析了不同海潮模型对福建地区海潮负荷位移的影响,并利用验潮站数据评定了海潮模型在当地的适用性.结果表明,海潮模型的差异主要集中在台湾海峡两岸,而在湄洲湾以北至浙江沿海一带,M2分潮的STD甚至超过30 cm;海潮模型差异主要影响海潮负荷位移的垂向分量,平均影响程度基本是水平分量的3倍;福建地区M2、S2、N2、K1和O1等分潮负荷位移的最大差异可达亚毫米至毫米级,且各分潮负荷位移的STD随着离海距离增大按负指数函数规律减小,海潮模型差异仅对近海50 km内的地区影响较大;FES2014b在闽台附近海域精度最高,是福建地区海潮负荷位移估计首选的海潮模型.     

越南沿海潮汐类型分布及极值天文潮位

采用最小二乘法,首先对越南从北至南的33个沿海验潮站的长期（最短是5年,最长是53年）观测资料进行潮汐调和分析得到各站的调和常数,再根据分潮O1、K1、M2的振幅值计算指数 V=(HO1+HK1)/HM2,进而结合各站的V值和实际观测资料,指出：越南北部沿岸潮汐性质类型为正规全日潮,潮汐振幅在2.5?4.5m范围内;越南中部沿岸潮汐性质较复杂,该海岸具有三种潮汐类型,包括不正规日潮,不正规半日潮和正规全日潮,潮汐振幅较小,大致在0.5?2.5m范围内;越南南部沿岸潮汐性质为不正规半日潮,潮汐振幅在3.0?4.0m左右;越南西南部沿岸潮汐性质类型为不正规日潮,潮汐振幅大致在1.0?2.0m范围内。从上述33个潮站中选取了12个验潮站,计算了各站包括114分潮的潮汐调和常数,采用潮汐预报法推估出各站20年间（1987?2007）的天文潮位序列,从天文潮位序列中取出最高和最低值。因为这些验潮站的观测时间跨度较长、潮高数据序列较稳定、潮汐调和分析精度较高,均方根都小于?10cm,并有较高可靠性。最后,对本文研究结果提出了几点认识和建议     

利用动态PPP技术确定海潮负荷位移

利用动态PPP对香港12个GPS测站2007—2012年的数据反演了海潮负荷位移,通过与7个全球海潮模型、1个区域模型和静态PPP反演的结果比较发现,相对于另外几个模型,动态PPP反演结果与TPXO.7.2、EOT11a、HAMTIDE和NAO99Jb模型的结果符合得更好。与静态PPP的结果比较发现其RMS与各模型的RMS大体上一致,只是在S2、K2和K1的E方向和M2、S2的N方向稍有增加。此外,除K2和K1潮波外,动态PPP与模型的RMS值在水平方向上均小于1 mm,在垂直方向上均小于2.5 mm,能达到和静态PPP相当的精度。本文反演的结果与NAO99Jb模型值存在明显的系统偏差,当去除系统偏差后,所有潮波的RMS值都有明显的减小,尤其在K1的垂直方向RMS从16.4 mm减少到1.3 mm。此外,通过将香港2012年验潮站数据反演的潮波参数与模型的结果进行比较发现,其结果同样与TPXO.7.2、EOT11a、HAMTIDE和NAO99Jb这4个模型更为符合,这进一步验证了动态PPP反演海潮的有效性,同时说明这4个模型比较适合香港区域。     

利用验潮站资料的中国近岸海潮模型精度评估

针对全球海潮模型在我国近海海域精度较差的问题,该文采用中国沿岸30个长期验潮站的调和常数,对比了3种全球海潮模型DTU10、TPXO7.2、NAO.99b和1个区域海潮模型NAO.99Jb在中国沿岸的准确度。通过海潮模型与验潮站分潮的振幅中误差、迟角中误差以及8个主要分潮的预报误差,对渤海、黄海、东海和南海北部进行了详细的分析。结果表明,NAO.99Jb在中国海域精度最高,NAO.99b次之。在渤海海域,DTU10在Q_1分潮精度最高,NAO.99b在K2分潮精度最高,其余分潮均是NAO.99Jb精度最高;在黄海海域,NAO.99b在Q_1分潮精度最高,其余分潮均是NAO.99Jb精度最高;在东海海域,DTU10在Q_1分潮精度最高,TPXO7.2在P1精度最高,NAO.99Jb在O1、M2分潮精度最高,其余分潮均是NAO.99b精度最高;在南海北部海域,DTU10在N2、S2分潮精度最高,其余分潮均是NAO.99Jb精度最高。     

利用改进的动态PPP技术建立中国香港区域海潮负荷位移模型

利用GPS技术反演海潮负荷信息,相比传统重力及甚长基线干涉测量,有着全球覆盖、测站数多、全天候、成本低等诸多优势,为海潮模型的建立提供了有效的技术手段,也对海潮负荷效应的研究有着重要的理论意义和参考价值。利用动态精密单点定位技术（precise point positioning,PPP）反演海潮负荷位移,同时构建了区域海潮负荷位移模型。利用香港连续运行参考站8 a的GPS观测数据,精密测定了11个测站的三维海潮负荷位移参数,与高精度海潮模型提供的海潮负荷位移参数进行比较,发现除K₂、K₁潮波外,其他潮波的均方根误差均小于2 mm。与已有的动态PPP及静态PPP结果对比发现,采用改进的重叠时段动态PPP算法可有效改善K₁潮波的反演精度;该方法反演的海潮负荷位移精度可达到静态PPP反演海潮负荷位移的精度,且对于K₁潮波,在东西方向,动态PPP算法的反演精度较静态PPP略有改善。利用最小二乘曲面拟合法可有效建立中国香港地区GPS区域海潮负荷位移模型,可有效弥补沿海地区因验潮站稀少而导致的海潮模型适应性差的问题。     

潮汐对高精度重力测量的改正分析

分析了固体潮和海洋负荷潮对沿海基准站绝对重力测量的影响,以及利用不同海潮模型计算后的精度统计,结果表明全球海潮模型对我国沿海绝对重力测量的改正不是十分精确。并简要分析了海洋负荷潮对相对重力测量的影响。     

基于不同潮汐类型的不同时间尺度分潮结果精度分析

选取4种不同潮汐类型的验潮站实测潮位资料,对验潮零点在一定范围内变动对调和分析结果的影响进行分析,结果表明,一年的潮位数据中若后续6个月的数据发生10 cm、20 cm、30 cm零点漂移,各分潮振幅最大变化量为0.47 cm,迟角为0.16°。采用1~12个月不同中期尺度的实测数据,对调和结果的精度进行分析,结果表明,当潮位观测数据时间尺度小于6个月时,其4个主要分潮O_1、K_1、M_2、S_2振幅综合中误差在2 cm以上,迟角中误差在2°以上,具有显著的不稳定性;相同时间尺度的不同潮汐类型的潮位站潮位资料调和分析得到的主要分潮的振幅精度差异较大,迟角分布相似。当潮位观测数据时间尺度达到或多于6个月时,澳门站、汕尾站的分潮综合中误差分别为1.16 cm、0.61 cm,厦门站、北海站分别为2.90 cm和2.51 cm;各分潮迟角中误差均在2°内。当时间尺度超过9个月后,4个验潮站分潮振幅综合中误差均在2 cm以内,各分潮迟角中误差均在1°左右。     

佘山台倾斜固体潮观测的海潮负荷改正

采用FARRELL的负荷理论以及最新的TPXO6海潮模型和中国近海潮汐资料计算了海潮负荷对佘山台倾斜固体潮的影响,采用BAYTAP-G调和分析软件对佘山台倾斜固体潮观测进行了处理,获得不同潮波的潮汐参数。在此基础上进行海潮负荷改正。负荷改正后,东西分量的振幅因子和相位滞后与理论值较为接近,而南北分量的半日波振幅因子与理论值仍有较大的偏离。结果说明,佘山台倾斜东西分量主要受海潮负荷的影响,超过60%,甚至达到96%(O1);而南北分量受到的非潮汐的影响要比东西分量受到的影响大,如N2波甚至高达70%,但是这也可能是和海潮模型在近海的不精确有关。     

World-wide synthetic tide parameters for gravity and vertical and horizontal displacements

The response of the Earth’s crust to the direct effect of lunisolar gravitational forcing is known as the body tide. The body tide is superimposed by surface-loading forces due to the pressure of the periodically varying ocean tide acting on the Earth, called ocean tide loading (OTL). Both body tide and OTL can be decomposed into components of the same frequency known as tidal parameters. However, OTL is more complicated than body tides because of the dynamic effects of the ocean. Estimating OTL requires a model of the ocean tides and knowledge of the elastic properties of the solid Earth. Thus, synthetic tide parameters (amplitude factors and phase leads) have been developed here on a world-wide grid for gravity and positional displacements. The body tide contributions were added to the oceanic contribution to provide the Earth tide response. The accuracy and reliability of the synthetic tidal parameters have been estimated by comparing observed gravity and vertical-displacement tide parameters with those interpolated from our synthetic model, which shows good agreement. Tests also indicate that the synthetic tide parameters provide realistic gravimetric and displacements for practical use in tidal prediction.     

The impact of the dynamic sea surface topography on the quasi-geoid in shallow coastal waters

In this study, we examine the impact of instantaneous dynamic sea surface topography (DT) corrections to be applied to altimeter-derived sea surface slopes on the quasi-geoid in the shallow and coastal waters of the North Sea. In particular, we investigate the added value of DT corrections obtained from a shallow-water hydrodynamic model. These corrections comprise the contributions of ocean tides, wind- and pressure-driven (surge), and density-driven (baroclinic) water-level variations including the interactions between them. As a reference, we used tidal corrections derived from the global ocean tide model GOT4.7, surge corrections derived from the MOG2D model, and corrections for the time-averaged baroclinic contribution computed as differences between the DTU10 mean sea surface model and the EGG08 quasi-geoid. From a spectral analysis, we found that the baroclinic and surge parts of the DT mainly contribute to improvements in the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) at longer wavelengths down to $100{-}200~\hbox {km}$ and that the improvements increase towards the southern North Sea. We also found that the shallow-water hydrodynamic model provides better tidal corrections compared to the GOT4.7 global ocean tide model, which are most pronounced in the southern North Sea and affect almost the entire spectrum. Very small differences (mostly below ${\pm } 2~\hbox {cm}$ ) are observed between the quasi-geoid solutions obtained using the different sets of DT corrections. We showed that the variance component estimation provides too optimistic variance factors for the shipboard data set relative to the altimeter-derived quasi-geoid slopes. Hence, the limited impact of DT corrections is due to the fact that altimeter-derived quasi-geoid slopes hardly contribute to the estimated quasi-geoid if shipboard gravity data are included. When computing quasi-geoid solutions without shipboard gravity data, we found that less accurate or incomplete DT corrections may cause errors in the quasi-geoid with systematic spatial patterns. These systematic patterns disappear or are reduced significantly when using the DT corrections provided by the shallow-water hydrodynamic model. The main contributor to this improvement is the better tidal correction provided by the shallow-water hydrodynamic model compared to the GOT4.7 global ocean tide model. Seen the improvements of the global ocean tide models over the last two decades, we expect that in the near future global ocean tide models perform as well as dedicated regional models such as DCSM. Critical issue is, however, access to high-quality local bathymetric data.     

Differences between mean tide level and mean sea level

This paper discusses the differences between mean tide level (MTL) and mean sea level (MSL) as demonstrated using information from a global tide gauge data set. The roles of the two main contributors to differences between MTL and MSL (the M4 harmonic of the M2 semidiurnal tide, and the combination of the diurnal tides K1 and O1) are described, with a particular focus on the spatial scales of variation in MTL–MSL due to each contributor. Findings from the tide gauge data set are contrasted with those from a state-of-the-art global tide model. The study is of interest within tidal science, but also has practical importance regarding the type of mean level used to define land survey datums. In addition, an appreciation of MTL–MSL difference is important in the use of the historical sea level data used in climate change research, with implications for some of the data stored in international databanks. Particular studies are made of how MTL and MSL might differ through the year, and if MTL is measured in daylight hours only, as has been the practice of some national geodetic agencies on occasions in the past.     

近海潮汐效应对上海地区精密定位的影响

针对全球海潮模型在不同沿海地区存在差异性以及在中国近海精度不高的问题,利用全球海潮模型FES2004和NAO99b计算上海地区(经纬度范围为120.85°E～122.2°E,30.6667°N～31.8833°N)S₂、M₂、K₁和O₁四个分潮的海潮负荷位移在垂直分量上的差异;并利用中国近海模型osu.chinasea.2010对全球海潮模型FES2004中相应的区域进行替换,计算近海效应对SHJZ站(上海金山)、SHJBS站(上海宝山)、SHAO站(上海佘山)以及DCMD站(上海崇明)四个测站精密定位的影响。结果表明:1) 全球海潮模型FES2004和NAO99b在上海地区存在较明显的差异,尤其是垂直分量,最大接近4 mm,且两个模型的差异随离海洋距离增大而减小;2) 利用修正前后的全球海潮模型FES2004经过计算分析得出,近海效应对上海地区GPS测站精密定位的影响达到5 mm,对测站垂直分量的位移影响从大到小分别是DCMD站(5.1 mm)、SHBS站(4.9 mm)、SHJS(4.2 mm)、SHAO(3.6 mm)。      

Ocean tide loading (OTL) displacements from global and local grids: comparisons to GPS estimates over the shelf of Brittany, France

In this paper we examine OTL displacements detected by GPS stations of a dedicated campaign and validate ocean tide models. Our area of study is the continental shelf of Brittany and Cotentin in France. Brittany is one of the few places in the world where tides provoke loading displacements of ∼10–12 cm vertically and a few cm horizontally. Ocean tide models suffer from important discrepancies in this region. Seven global and regional ocean tide models were tested: FES2004 corrected for K2, TPXO.7.0, TPXO.6.2, GOT00.2, CSR4.0, NAO.99b and the most recent regional grids of the North East Atlantic (NEA2004). These gridded amplitudes and phases of ocean tides were convolved in order to get the predicted OTL displacements using two different algorithms. Data over a period of 3.5 months of 8 GPS campaign stations located on the north coast of Brittany are used, in order to evaluate the geographical distribution of the OTL effect. We have modified and implemented new algorithms in our GPS software, GINS 7.1. GPS OTL constituents are estimated based on 1-day batch solutions. We compare the observed GPS OTL constituents of M₂, S₂, N₂ and K₁ waves with the selected ocean tide models on global and regional grids. Large phase-lag and amplitude discrepancies over 20° and 1.5 cm in the vertical direction in the semi-diurnal band of M₂ between predictions and GPS/models are detected in the Bay of Mont St-Michel. From a least squares spectral analysis of the GPS time-series, significant harmonic peaks in the integer multiples of the orbital periods of the GPS satellites are observed, indicating the existence of multipath effects in the GPS OTL constituents. The GPS OTL observations agree best with FES2004, NEA2004, GOT00.2 and CSR4.0 tide models.     

One centimeter-level observations of diurnal ocean tides from global monthly mean time-variable gravity fields

A method of analyzing GRACE satellite-to-satellite ranging data is presented which accentuates signals from diurnal ocean tides and dampens signals from long-period non-tidal phenomena. We form a time series of differences between two independent monthly mean gravity solutions, one set computed from range-rate data along strictly ascending arcs and the other set computed from data along descending arcs. The solar and lunisolar diurnal tides having alias periods longer than a few months, such as K ₁, P ₁, and S ₁, present noticeable variations in the monthly ascending and descending ‘difference’ solutions, while the climate-related signals are largely cancelled. By computing tidal arguments evaluated along the actual GRACE orbits, we decompose and estimate residual tidal signals with respect to our adopted prior model GOT4.7. The adjustment in the tidal height is small yet significant, yielding maximum amplitudes of 4 cm mostly under the Antarctic ice shelves and ~1 cm in general at spatial scales of several hundred kilometer. Moreover, the results suggest there are possible 1-cm errors in the tide model even over oceans well-covered by decades of radar altimetry missions. Independent validation of such small adjustments covering wide areas, however, is difficult, particularly with limited point measurements such as tide gauge.     

海潮负荷效应对我国及周边IGS站的影响
