Assessing modern river sediment discharge to the ocean using satellite gravimetry

HIGHLIGHTS

  • who: Maxime Mouyen from the Géosciences Rennes, UMR, Rennes, France, CNES/GRGS, E. Belin, Toulouse , France. The University have published the Article: Assessing modern river sediment discharge to the ocean using satellite gravimetry, in the Journal: NATURE COMMUNICATIONS NATURE COMMUNICATIONS of 26/Dec/2004
  • what: The authors demonstrate that the associated increment in gravitational attraction is measurable by the GRACE (Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment11) satellite mission. The authors develop a numerical model of oceanic sediment transport to estimate contemporary sedimentation zones for 13 rivers with the world's highest sediment discharges (see Fig . . .
