The earth’s gravity field recovery using the third invariant of the gravity gradient tensor from GOCE

Abstract Due to the independence of the gradiometer instrument’s orientation in space, the second invariant $$I_2$$ I 2 of gravity gradients in combination with individual gravity gradients are demonstrated to be valid for gravity field determination. In this contribution, we develop a novel gravity...
