In order to detect the gravitomagnetic clock effect by means of two counter-orbiting satellites placed on identical equatorial and circular orbits around the Earth with radius 7000 km their radial and azimuthal positions must be known with an accuracy of δr=10-1 mm and δϕ=10-2 mas (milliarcseconds) per revolution. In this work we investigate if the radial and azimuthal perturbations induced by the dynamical and static parts of the Earth's gravitational field meet these requirements. While the radial direction is affected only by harmonic perturbations with periods up to some tens of days, the azimuthal location is perturbed by a secular drift and very long period effects. It results that the present level of accuracy in the knowledge both of the Earth solid and ocean tides, and of the static part of the geopotential does not allow an easy detection of the gravitomagnetic clock effect at least by using short arcs only.

As we know the spherical functions are traditionally used in geodesy for modeling the gravitational field of the Earth. But the gravitational field is not stationary either in space or in time (but the latter is beyond the scope of this article) and can change quite strongly in various directions. By its nature, the spherical functions do not fully display the local features of the field. With this in mind it is advisable to use spatially localized basis functions. So it is convenient to divide the region under consideration into segments with a nearly stationary field. The complexity of the field in each segment can be characterized by means of an anisotropic matrix resulting from the covariance analysis of the field. If we approach the modeling in this way there can arise a problem of poor coherence of local models on segments’ borders. To solve the above mentioned problem it is proposed in this article to use new basis functions with Mahalanobis metric instead of the usual Euclidean distance. The Mahalanobis metric and the quadratic form generalizing this metric enables us to take into account the structure of the field when determining the distance between the points and to make the modeling process continuous.

Abstract This study discusses the usage of Venus gravity assist in order to choose and reaching any point on Venusian surface. The launch of a spacecraft to Venus during the launch windows of 2029 to 2031 is considered for this purpose. The constraints for the method are the re-entry angle and the maximum possible overload. The primary basis of the proposed strategy is to use the gravitational field of Venus to transfer the spacecraft to an orbit resonant to the Venusian one – with the aim of expanding accessible landing areas. Results of the current research show that this strategy provides an essential increase in accessible landing areas and, moreover, may provide an access to any point on the surface of Venus with a small increase in ∆V required for launch from the Earth and in the flight duration. The comparison with the landing without using gravity assist near planet is also given.

This paper investigates one of the most interesting effects associated with the rotation of astrophysical objects (the Sagnac effect). The effect was first confirmed in laboratory experiments by Georges Sagnac with a rotating ring interferometer in 1913. Later, the effect was also confirmed within the framework of the Earth in the "Around-the-World" experiment conducted by J. Hafele and R. Kitting, in which they twice circled the Earth with an atomic cesium clock on board and compared the "flying" clock with those remaining static on the Earth. As a result, a non-zero difference in the clock rate was found as a confirmation of the Sagnac effect. Subsequently, more precise satellite experiments have been carried out to measure the Sagnac effect within the Earth. The effect was also considered in general relativity and modified theories of gravity, where many works were carried out to study the influence of such parameters as angular momentum, cosmological constant, Ricci scalar, etc. on the Sagnac effect. An interesting task is to study the influence of a magnetic charge on the effect, since the solution with rotation described by a black hole with mass M and magnetic charge g is the Bardeen nonsingular black hole. The work will calculate the Sagnac effect in the space-time of the rotating Bardeen black hole for both geodesic and non-geodesic circular orbits of the light source / receiver (assuming that the light source and receiver are defined at the same point). Two types of circular orbits describe the opposing influence on the Sagnac effect: the Sagnac delay increases with an increase in the magnetic charge in the case of non-geodesic circular orbits and decreases in the case of geodesic circular orbits. However, the farther is the orbit of the light source / receiver, the less the magnetic charge affects the Sagnac delay. It is also assumed that the gravity of the Earth and the Sun near the surface is well described by the Bardeen metric.

Abstract Mantle Rayleigh waves from the Kamchatka earthquake of November 4, 1952, are analyzed. The new Palisades long-period vertical seismograph recorded orders R6–R15, the corresponding paths involving up to seven complete passages around the earth. The dispersion data for periods below 400 sec. are in excellent agreement with earlier results and can be explained in terms of the known increase of shear velocity with depth in the mantle. Data for periods 400-480 sec. indicate a tendency for the group velocity curve to level off, suggesting that these long waves are influenced by a low or vanishing shear velocity in the core. Deduction of internal friction in the mantle from wave absorption gives a value 1/Q = 370 × 10−5 for periods 250-350 sec. This is a little over half the value reported earlier for periods 140-215 sec.

Long-term changes in air temperature on the territory of the Republic of Tatarstan in the 20th–21st centuries are considered. The periods of unambiguous changes in the surface air temperature are determined. It is established that the average winter temperature from the 1970s to 2017, increased in the Kazan region by more than 3 °C and the average summer temperature increased by about 2 °C over the same period. The contribution of global scale processes to the variability of the temperature of the Kazan region is shown: it was 37 % in winter, 23 % in summer. The correlation analysis of the anomalies of average annual air temperature in Kazan and the series of air temperature anomalies in each node over the continents, as well as the ocean surface temperature in each coordinate node on Earth for 1880 –2017, was performed. Long-distance communications were detected in the temperature field between Kazan and remote regions of the Earth. It is noted that long-period climate fluctuations in Kazan occur synchronously with fluctuations in the high latitudes of Asia and North America, with fluctuations in ocean surface temperature in the Arctic ocean, with fluctuations in air temperature in the Far East, and with fluctuations in ocean surface temperature in the Southern hemisphere in the Indian and Pacific oceans, as well as air temperature in southern Australia. It is suggested that there is a global mechanism that regulates long-term climate fluctuations throughout the Earth in the considered interval of 200 years of observations. According to the CMIP5 project, climatic scenarios were built for Kazan until the end of the 21st century.

Ocean Tide Models

<p>Solid Earth is affected by tidal cycles triggered by the gravity attraction of the celestial bodies. However, about 70% the Earth is covered with seawater which is also affected by the tidal forces. In the coastal areas, the ocean tide loading (OTL) can reach up to 10% of the earth tide, 90% for tilt, and 25% for strain (Farrell, 1972). Since 2007, a high-precision continuous gravity observation network in China has been established with 78 stations. The long-term high-precision tidal data of the network can be used to validate, verifying and even improve the ocean tide model (OTM).</p><p>In this paper, tidal parameters of each station were extracted using the harmonic analysis method after a careful editing of the data. 8 OTMs were used for calculating the OTL. The results show that the Root-Mean-Square of the tidal residuals (M<sub>0</sub>) vary between 0.078-1.77 μgal, and the average errors as function of the distance from the sea for near(0-60km), middle(60-1000km) and far(>1000km) stations are 0.76, 0.30 and 0.21 μgal. The total final gravity residuals (Tx) of the 8 major constituents (M<sub>2</sub>, S<sub>2</sub>, N<sub>2</sub>, K<sub>2</sub>, K<sub>1</sub>, O<sub>1</sub>, P<sub>1</sub>, Q<sub>1</sub>) for the best OTM has amplitude ranging from 0.14 to 3.45 μgal. The average efficiency for O<sub>1</sub> is 77.0%, while 73.1%, 59.6% and 62.6% for K<sub>1</sub>, M<sub>2</sub> and Tx. FES2014b provides the best corrections for O<sub>1</sub> at 12 stations, while SCHW provides the best for K<sub>1 </sub><sub>,</sub>M<sub>2</sub>and Tx at 12,8and 9 stations. For the 11 costal stations, there is not an obvious best OTM. The models of DTU10, EOT11a and TPXO8 look a litter better than FES2014b, HAMTIDE and SCHW. For the 17 middle distance stations, SCHW is the best OTM obviously. For the 7 far distance stations, FES2014b and SCHW model are the best models. But the correction efficiency is worse than the near and middle stations’.</p><p>The outcome is mixed: none of the recent OTMs performs the best for all tidal waves at all stations. Surprisingly, the Schwiderski’s model although is 40 years old with a coarse resolution of 1° x 1° is performing relative well with respect to the more recent OTM. Similar results are obtained in Southeast Asia (Francis and van Dam, 2014). It could be due to systematic errors in the surroundings seas affecting all the ocean tides models. It's difficult to detect, but invert the gravity attraction and loading effect to map the ocean tides in the vicinity of China would be one way.</p>
