Stellare is a woman from ÅSA, Norway.

Earth science expert and astrophysicist interested in Earth observation, geodesy, climate change, geohazards, water cycle and other science related topics. I also like to meet new people from all around the world. I'm totally in love with space and photography.

ESA - Living Planet Programme - GOCE - GOCE mission overview: Jan 3, 11:00am (1 review) http://www.esa.int/esaLP/ESABQK1VMOC_LPg...; Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer

The Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer (GOCE) is dedicated to measuring the Earth's gravity field and modelling the geoid with extremely high accuracy and spatial resolution.

A precise model of the Earth's geoid is crucial for deriving accurate measurements of ocean circulation, sea-level change and terrestrial ice dynamics - all of which are affected by climate change. The geoid is also used as a reference surface from which to map all topographical features on the planet. More information about the geoid can be found in 10 reasons why Al Gore needs the geoid.
