Kilometer-resolution gravity field of Mars: MGM2011

Kilometer-resolution gravity field of Mars: MGM2011

We present a model that resolves the gravity field of Mars down to km-scales: Mars Gravity Model 2011 (MGM2011). MGM2011 uses Newtonian forward-modelling and the MOLA (Mars Orbiter Laser Altimeter) topography model to estimate the short-scale gravity field (scales of ~3 km to ~125 km). Combined with...
