This project aims to advance knowledge to quantify ongoing mass loss of Earth’s polar ice caps and glaciers, increases in sea level, and changes in continental water storage. The project expects to improve the capability to monitor changes on Earth using satellites and to enhance analysis by exploiting data from new instrumentation on the GRACE Follow-On space gravity mission, due for launch in 2018. Expected results aim to improve computational tools and to develop expertise to analyse the new data. Other expected outcomes include reliable methods to monitor significant sea-level rise and associated societal and economic disruptions.

该项目旨在提高知识，以量化地球极地冰盖和冰川的持续质量损失，海平面增加以及连续储水的变化。该项目预计将通过卫星卫星来监测地球变化的能力，并通过利用新仪器的数据来增强分析，以了解2018年恩典的后续空间重力任务。预期结果旨在改善计算工具并开发专业知识来分析新数据。其他预期的结果包括可靠的方法来监视海平面的大幅上升以及相关的社会和经济破坏。
