• Antarctic contribution to sea level rise observed by GRACE with improved GIA correction (2013, methodology): “In addition, we employ information from satellite laser ranging (SLR) studies [Cheng and Tapley, 2004; Cheng et al., 2013] for properly restoring the low-order zonals PNCS200, PNCS300, PNCS400, as recommended by Bettadpur [2007], and in GRACE Technical Note 05 (update as of 12 June 2012) for the…”
• Effect of GIA models with 3D composite mantle viscosity on GRACE mass balance estimates for Antarctica (2015, methodology): “The C20 coefficient is replaced by the values from Satellite Laser Ranging (SLR) ranging (Cheng et al., 2013) and continental water storage changes are accounted for using the GLDAS model (Rodell et al., 2004).”
• Extending the Global Mass Change Data Record: GRACE Follow‐On Instrument and Science Data Performance (2020, methodology): “Recent improvements in SLR processing (Loomis et al., 2019) have led to new SLR‐ C20 estimates that are provided in Technical Note 14 (TN‐14), replacing the previously recommended Technical Note 11 (TN‐11; Cheng et al., 2013).”
• Improved Earth Oblateness Rate Reveals Increased Ice Sheet Losses and Mass‐Driven Sea Level Rise (2019, methodology): “Regardless of the error source, it has become standard practice to replace the GRACE C20 estimates with values obtained by SLR in order to ensure the proper scientific application of GRACE data products (Cheng et al., 2013).”
• Time‐variable gravity observations of ice sheet mass balance: Precision and limitations of the GRACE satellite data (2013, background): “We make all the corrections described above: scaling; including degree-1 terms; replacing the GRACE C20 coefficients with those obtained from SLR; removing a GIA contribution; removing the GLDAS/Noah hydrology signal, redistributing any excess water into the ocean; distributing Greenland and Antarct”
• Regional acceleration in ice mass loss from Greenland and Antarctica using GRACE time‐variable gravity data (2014, methodology): “We use monthly C20 coefficients from satellite laser ranging [Cheng et al., 2013] and include degree 1 VELICOGNA ET AL.”
