Abstract

The possibility of monitoring a large scale geodetic network in southern Europe and East Mediterranean Area represents one of the most far reaching perspectives in modern experimental research in geodynamics. In the WEGENER/MEDLAS project the approach to such a monitoring is based on the LAGEOS satellite being tracked by a number of fixed and mobile stations which locally densify the worldwide laser tracking network. The analysis includes, but is not limited to, the repeated estimation of the baselines. Our main objective is to reliably determine the deformation of the WEGENER geodetic network (see fig.l) and in this case the time series of the baselines estimates are analysed in conjunction with other results, such as polar motion, LAGEOS kinematical and dynamical model, geological survey and local field measurements including the monitoring of the performance of LASER stations partecipating to the WEGENER project.KeywordsGravity FieldMobile StationPolar MotionOcean TideGeodetic NetworkThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
