General tasks in scientific projects:
- absolute monitoring
(locally, regionally) of subsurface mass movements, of deformations of the
earth's surface in geodynamically active areas, and of the vertical movements
of tide gauges (in combination with geometrical procedures),
- independent
comparative/controlling measurements at stations with GPS, VLBI, SLR,stationary
superconducting gravimeter,
- establishment of large
scale gravity nets (regionally, continentally, globally) for the unification
and definition of gravity and heights systems (e.g., international absolute
gravity standardization networks), and to detect tectonically caused temporal
gravity changes.
