Research in Geodesy and Geophysics Based upon Radio Interferometric Observations of Extragalactic Radio Sources.
Abstract
This report consists of a collection of reprints and preprints. Subjects included: description of Mk-III system for very long baseline interferometry (VLBI); geodetic results from the Mk-I and Mk-III systems for VLBI; effects of modeling atmospheric propagation on estimates of baseline length and station height; an improved model for the dry propagation delay; corrections to IAU 1980 nutation series based on VLBI data and geophysical interpretation of those corrections; and a review of the contributions of VLBI to geodynamic studies. Keywords: Interferometry; Nutation; Plate tectonics; Atmospheric propagation; Geodesy; Earth tides.
