This work is dedicated to the wavelet modelling of regional and temporal variations of the Earth's gravitational potential observed by GRACE. In the first part, all required mathematical tools and methods involving spherical wavelets are introduced. Then we apply our method to monthly GRACE gravity fields. A strong seasonal signal can be identified, which is restricted to areas, where large-scale redistributions of continental water mass are expected. This assumption is analyzed and verified by comparing the time series of regionally obtained wavelet coefficients of the gravitational signal originated from hydrology models and the gravitational potential observed by GRACE. The results are in good agreement to previous studies and illustrate that wavelets are an appropriate tool to investigate regional time-variable effects in the gravitational field.
In this paper we introduce a multiscale technique for the analysis of deformation phenomena of the Earth. Classically, the basis functions under use are globally defined and show polynomial character. In consequence, only a global analysis of deformations is possible such that, for example, the water load of an artificial reservoir is hardly to model in that way. Up till now, the alternative to realize a local analysis can only be established by assuming the investigated region to be flat. In what follows we propose a local analysis based on tools (Navier scaling functions and wavelets) taking the (spherical) surface of the Earth into account. Our approach, in particular, enables us to perform a zooming-in procedure. In fact, the concept of Navier wavelets is formulated in such a way that subregions with larger or smaller data density can accordingly be modelled with a higher or lower resolution of the model, respectively.
Wavelets on closed surfaces in Euclidean space R3 are introduced starting from a scale discrete wavelet transform for potentials harmonic down to a spherical boundary. Essential tools for approximation are integration formulas relating an integral over the sphere to suitable linear combinations of functional values (resp. normal derivatives) on the closed surface under consideration. A scale discrete version of multiresolution is described for potential functions harmonic outside the closed surface and regular at infinity. Furthermore, an exact fully discrete wavelet approximation is developed in case of band-limited wavelets. Finally, the role of wavelets is discussed in three problems, namely (i) the representation of a function on a closed surface from discretely given data, (ii) the (discrete) solution of the exterior Dirichlet problem, and (iii) the (discrete) solution of the exterior Neumann problem.
A multiscale method is introduced using spherical (vector) wavelets for the computation of the earth's magnetic field within source regions of ionospheric and magnetospheric currents. The considerations are essentially based on two geomathematical keystones, namely (i) the Mie representation of solenoidal vector fields in terms of toroidal and poloidal parts and (ii) the Helmholtz decomposition of spherical (tangential) vector fields. Vector wavelets are shown to provide adequate tools for multiscale geomagnetic modelling in form of a multiresolution analysis, thereby completely circumventing the numerical obstacles caused by vector spherical harmonics. The applicability and efficiency of the multiresolution technique is tested with real satellite data.
In this work we introduce a new bandlimited spherical wavelet: The Bernstein wavelet. It possesses a couple of interesting properties. To be specific, we are able to construct bandlimited wavelets free of oscillations. The scaling function of this wavelet is investigated with regard to the spherical uncertainty principle, i.e., its localization in the space domain as well as in the momentum domain is calculated and compared to the well-known Shannon scaling function. Surprisingly, they possess the same localization in space although one is highly oscillating whereas the other one shows no oscillatory behavior. Moreover, the Bernstein scaling function turns out to be the first bandlimited scaling function known to the literature whose uncertainty product tends to the minimal value 1.
In this paper, we deal with the problem of spherical interpolation of discretely given data of tensorial type. To this end, spherical tensor fields are investigated and a decomposition formula is described. Tensor spherical harmonics are introduced as eigenfunctions of a tensorial analogon to the Beltrami operator and discussed in detail. Based on these preliminaries, a spline interpolation process is described and error estimates are presented. Furthermore, some relations between the spline basis functions and the theory of radial basis functions are developed.
Die Bestimmung des Erdgravitationspotentials aus den Meßdaten des Forschungssatelliten CHAMP lässt sich als Operatorgleichung formulieren (SST-Problem). Dieser Ansatz geht davon aus, dass ein geometrischer Orbit des Satelliten CHAMP vorliegt. Mittels numerischer Differentiation unter Einsatz eines geeigneten Denoising Verfahrens kann dann aus dem geometrischen Orbit der Gradient des Potentials längs der Bahn bestimmt werden. Damit sind insbesondere die Radialableitung (und der Flächengradient) auf einem Punktgitter auf der Bahn bekannt. In einem erdfesten System stellt sich dies als eine nahezu vollständige Überdeckung der Erde (bis auf Polar Gaps) mit einem ziemlich dichten Datengitter auf Flughöhe des Satelliten dar. Die Lösung der SST-Operatorgleichung (Bestimmung des Potentials auf der Erdoberfläche aus Kenntnis der Radialableitung auf einem Datengitter auf Flughöhe) ist ein schlecht gestelltes inverses Problem, das mit einer geeigneten Regularisierungstechnik gelöst werden muß. Im vorliegenden Fall wurde eine solche Regularisierung mit Hilfe von nicht-bandlimitierten Regularisierungsskalierungsfunktionen und Regularisierungswavelets umgesetzt. Diese sind stark ortslokalisierend und führen daher auf ein Potentialmodell, welches eine Linearkombination stark ortslokalisierender Funktionen ist. Ein solches Modell kann als Lokalmodell auch aus nur lokalen Daten berechnet werden und bietet daher gegenüber Kugelfunktionsmodellen wie EGM96 erhebliche Vorteile für die moderne Geopotentialbestimmung. Die Diskretisierung und numerische Umsetzung der Berechnung eines solchen Modells erfolgt mit Splines, die hier ebenfalls Linearkombinationen stark ortslokalisierender Funktionen sind. Die großen linearen Gleichungssysteme, die zur Berechnung der glättenden oder interpolierenden Splines gelöst werden müssen, können auf schnelle und effiziente Weise mit dem Schwarzschen alternierenden Algorithmus in Verbindung mit schnellen Summationsverfahren (Fast Multipole Methods) gelöst werden. Eine Kombination des Schwarzschen alternierenden Algorithmus mit solchen schnellen Summationsverfahren ermöglicht eine weitere erhebliche Beschleunigung beim Lösen dieser Gleichungssysteme. Zur Bestimmung von Glättungsparametern (Spline-Smoothing) und Regularisierungsparametern kann die L-Curve Method zum Einsatz kommen.
A continuous version of spherical multiresolution is described, starting from continuous wavelet transform on the sphere. Scale discretization enables us to construct spherical counterparts to Daubechies wavelets and wavelet packets (known from Euclidean theory). Essential tool is the theory of singular integrals on the sphere. It is shown that singular integral operators forming a semigroup of contraction operators of class (Co) (like Abel-Poisson or Gauß-Weierstraß operators) lead in canonical way to (pyramidal) algorithms.
In modern approximation methods linear combinations in terms of (space localizing) radial basis functions play an essential role. Areas of application are numerical integration formulas on the uni sphere omega corresponding to prescribed nodes, spherical spline interpolation, and spherical wavelet approximation. the evaluation of such a linear combination is a time consuming task, since a certain number of summations, multiplications and the calculation of scalar products are required. This paper presents a generalization of the panel clustering method in a spherical setup. The economy and efficiency of panel clustering is demonstrated for three fields of interest, namely upward continuation of the earth's gravitational potential, geoid computation by spherical splines and wavelet reconstruction of the gravitational potential.
The purpose of satellite-to-satellite tracking (SST) and/or satellite gravity gradiometry (SGG) is to determine the gravitational field on and outside the Earth's surface from given gradients of the gravitational potential and/or the gravitational field at satellite altitude. In this paper both satellite techniques are analysed and characterized from mathematical point of view. Uniqueness results are formulated. The justification is given for approximating the external gravitational field by finite linear combination of certain gradient fields (for example, gradient fields of single-poles or multi-poles) consistent to a given set of SGG and/or SST data. A strategy of modelling the gravitational field from satellite data within a multiscale concept is described; illustrations based on the EGM96 model are given.
