The combination of surface topography and image data would provide knowledge of Venus'tectonic and impact history, the timing and mechanisms of volcanic resurfacing, and the mantle processes responsible for them.
42.
It is often used as an alternative name for coherence scanning interferometry in the context of areal surface topography instrumentation that relies on spectrally-broadband, visible-wavelength light ( white light ).
43.
Using data sets from the satellite altimetry missions TOPEX / Poseidon, Jason-1, and the Ocean Surface Topography Mission of Jason-2, she has addressed the problem of GRACE satellite system into her analyses.
44.
The record of global sea surface height begun by TOPEX / Poseidon and Jason-1 continues into the future with the Ocean Surface Topography Mission on the Jason-2 satellite, which launched in June 2008.
45.
Other instruments will document changes in the atmosphere and measure the surface topography as well as search for ice and the presence of a magnetic field that would reveal something of Mars'inner core.
46.
The use of the counter-scanning method allows, even in the case of a strong drift leading to errors in tens of percents, measuring the surface topography with error of few tenths of a percent.
47.
The half-dozen instruments aboard the orbital spacecraft will chart for the first time seasonal changes in the planet's climate, measure the rough surface topography, and monitor growth and waning of the Martian polar ice caps.
48.
Additional tidal bench mark elevations were not used due to the demonstrated variations in sea surface topography, i . e ., that mean sea level is not the same equipotential surface at all tidal bench marks.
49.
Hydrogeomorphology of a drainage basin is a function of rainfall kinematics, surface topography, drainage basin morphology and runoff etc . All these aspects are regarded as the potential to describe hydrogeomorphic properties of the drainage basin.
50.
An open-loop tracking system, based on a priori knowledge of the surface topography, is the nominal means to position the 135 ?s receive window on the expected echo position ( a closed-loop tracker is available as backup ).
