Abstract:
Abstract The Department of Planetary Geodesy of the Space Research Centre PAS has been conducting research on a broad spectrum of problems within a field of global dynamics of the Earth. In this report we describe the investigations on selected subjects concerning polar motion (modeling and geophysical interpretation of the Chandler wobble, hydrological excitation of seasonal signals, search for optimal prediction methods), tectonic activity in the region of the Książ Geodynamic Laboratory of the SRC, and finally the new joint Polish-Italian project GalAc analyzing feasibility and usefulness o

The authors mark the main historical events of the St. Petersburg Mining University’s Department of Engineering Geodesy hundred-year work. A great experience in Surveying theory and practice started in the times of Peter the Great was accumulated. The beginning of Russian Surveying skills forming dates at 1701 with foundation of “Navigation and Mathematic Sciences school” in Moscow. Beside engineers and gunners, surveyors were trained there. In 1715 navigation classes moved to St. Petersburg; on their base the Nautical academy was founded. In the first technical higher educational institution

Abstract:
The Cambridge University Department of Geodesy and Geophysics pioneered the development of radio sonobuoys which could be used from a single ship to study the structure of the submarine crust. By contrast, contemporaneous marine seismic research, mainly in the USA, used more expensive techniques requiring the use of two ships. For nearly three decades from the early 1950s several generations of Cambridge sonobuoys were used as the primary tool to study the structure of the oceanic crust and the adjacent continental margins by seismic refraction methods, until superseded by ocean-bottom seismog

Abstract:
Abstract Arne Bjerhammar is well known worldwide mainly for his research in physical geodesy but also for introducing a new matrix algebra with generalized inverses applied in geodetic adjustment. Less known are his developments in geodetic engineering and contributions to satellite and relativistic geodesy as well as studies on the relation between the Fennoscandia land uplift and the regional gravity low. Most likely part of his research has contributed to worldwide political relaxation during the cold war, which deed was honored by a certificate of achievement awarded by the Department of R

This paper discusses the in near–real time processing of Global Navigation Satellite System observations at the Department of Theoretical Geodesy at the Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava. Hourly observations from Central Europe are processed with 30 minutes delay to provide tropospheric products. The time series and maps of tropospheric products over Slovakia are published online. Zenith total delay is the most important tropospheric parameter. Its comparison with zenith total delays from IGS and E–GVAP solutions and the validation of estimated zenith total delay error over year 20

Abstract:
The first computer fit of the continents had its origins in a controversy over Warren Carey's visual fit between South America and Africa. Sir Harold Jeffreys denied that there was a fit, but Sir Edward Bullard considered the fit to be impressive. Bullard suggested quantifying the fit to Jim Everett, a graduate student at the time. Everett did so, developing his own method from his mathematical background, and computed the fit for the South Atlantic. Alan Smith, then a research assistant, used his geological knowledge and worked with Everett to fit together all the circum-Atlantic continents.

Abstract:
Anthony (Tony) Laughton was an oceanographer who promoted the science of oceanograpy in Britain. Focusing on the shape of the seafloor, his work included underwater photography, ocean drilling, long-range side-scan sonar and scientific charting of the ocean floor. Following undergraduate studies at King's College, Cambridge, he joined Maurice Hill (FRS 1962) at the Cambridge Department of Geodesy and Geophysics, beginning a career in marine geophysics. Following his PhD, he spent a year at Lamont Geological Observatory, USA, where he met many leading US workers, and became interested in deep-s

Abstract:
Our review of the Russian literature on geodesy caused a desire to consider the texts related to determining the heights of points on the earth’s surface. This topic, seeming simple, is very complex and is a mandatory part of most textbooks for students of geodetic specialties in universities and colleges. The presentation of the heights theory in the course of topography affects not only the specialized departments of construction, polytechnic universities and specialized colleges, but higher geodetic educational institutions as well.

Peter Chadwick studied mathematics as an undergraduate at the University of Manchester, graduating with first-class honours in 1952, from where he moved to Cambridge and completed a PhD on the thermal history of the Earth in the Department of Geodesy and Geophysics under the supervision of Dr Robert Stoneley. His research then developed to focus primarily on the propagation of waves, and he made a major contribution to the mathematical theory of elastic wave propagation and became a world-leading authority in this area. He also made fundamental advances in the modelling of the thermo-elastic p
