Abstract text
|
We present new results on the extraction of magnetic signals due to several tidal constituents obtained by analyzing the most recent Swarm data in combination with data from past satellite missions. As we obtain more magnetically quiet data and as better models of the core, crust and magnetospheric field components become available, improvements in resolution and in the signal-to-noise ratio are anticipated for tidal magnetic signals, enhancing the sensitivity to the electrical conductivity of oceanic upper mantle. We show that the extraction of the weaker signals becomes feasible by utilizing longer time series and by including field gradients, which help filter out small scale noise. We also evaluate added value of CryoSat-2 and GRACE-FO platform magnetometer data.
