Content:
Recent advances and techniques in precise geoid determination are presented with a discussion of their implication for geophysical and oceanographic research, as well as identification and formulation of a goal on which future geoid research should focus. The volume is divided into the following sections: - The Geoid - Sea Surface Topography - The Vertical Datum - Miscellaneous.
