The description of the= session is given below. On behalf of the conveners I would like to draw your attention to this sess= ion and encourage you to participate in it. We are developing a rich sessio= n that will describe the next generation Global Geodetic Observing Networks= , their instrumentation and use in addressing geodetically demanding scient= ific topics like global sea level change. We hope that you will be able to = join us in San Francisco for this exciting session. More information about = the 2010 Fall Meeting of the AGU can be obtained from its web site at Please note that the deadline for submitting abstracts is 02 September 2010= . Hope to see you in San Francisco! Best regards, Richard .......................................................... G06: The Next Generation Global Geodetic Observing Networks The measurements needed to determine the Terrestrial Reference Frame, Celes= tial Reference Frame, and Earth Orientation Parameters linking them togethe= r are provided by international SLR, VLBI, GNSS, and DORIS networks. Yet th= ese networks are in danger of collapse. The SLR and VLBI networks are deter= iorating to the point that they are no longer sustainable, and the GNSS net= work needs to be upgraded to take advantage of newly available signals and = constellations. Current progress and future plans in developing the next ge= neration of these networks including plans for incorporating complementary = gravity networks will be discussed in this session, as will the scientific = and societal requirements levied on the performance of the networks..
