This mission has been organised in the framework of a multitechniques project (GPS, Gravimeter, Inclinomters, Tide gauges, Satellites Laser tracking) to measure loading effects of equinox ocean tides on earth´s crust in this area of Bretagne, and involves different partners and scientific french organisations*. With the very efficient collaboration of the French Navy in Brest which hosted our equipments and Ftlrs staff, the setup of the station was achieved quickly and we got the first pass on monday september 13 th, we´ll begin to send the data through usual flow in a few hours.. The site log for this new laser site was sent today to ILRS and, thanks Carey Noll, is available on line on the ILRS Web site. The link for this site information at Ilrs is the following : http://ilrs.gsfc.nasa.gov/stations/sitelist/select.cgi?order=by_site_name&site_code=BREF&site_name=Brest&pad_id=7604&tab_id=general We installed on site a webcam with a link on the OCA Web-site : http://grasse.obs-azur.fr/cerga/laser/ftlrs_brest/ Thanks for your cooperation, especially our colleagues from Epshom and the agencies and scientists involved in this project. Best regards to all of you Francis Pierron Don´t hesitate to contact us for any question or comment, scientific projects and application of interest for the futur with this system.... * List of the agencies implied in the project : - CLDG, EA 2612, Université de La Rochelle - France - ESGT, Le Mans - France - IGN - LAREG, Marne la Vallée - France - IGN - SGN, Saint-Mandé - France - IPGP, Département de Sismologie, UMR7580, Paris - France - IPGS - EOST, UMR7516, Strasbourg - France - LDL, UMR5573, Université Montpellier II/CNRS - France - OCA/GEMINI, Grasse - France - SHOM, section Géodésie-Géophysique, Brest - France - UMR 7619 ”Sisyphe”, Université Pierre et Marie Curie, Paris - France -- *--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--*--* + Francis Pierron Tel : (33) [0]4 93 40 54 20 + + GEMINI fax : (33) [0]4 93 09 26 14 + + email : francis.pierron@obs-azur.fr + + + + Grasse Laser ranging operations + + Ultra mobile and permanent stations + + + + Observatoire de la Cote d´Azur + + Avenue Nicolas Copernic 06130 Grasse - France + +-----------------------------------------------------------------+ From: Francis Pierron ******************************************************************************** |
