user_note_1 | The accelerometer on the GRACE-B spacecraft was turned off after August 2016. After this date, the accelerometer on GRACE-A was used to derive the non-gravitational accelerations acting on GRACE-B using a transplant procedure. This has led to a subsequent degradation in the quality of the gravity fields derived. The uncertainties in this file have been scaled to accomodate this degradation. |
user_note_2 | The accelerometer on the GRACE-D spacecraft began performing sub-optimally after June 21, 2018. After this date, the accelerometer on GRACE-C is used to derive the non-gravitational accelerations acting on GRACE-D using a transplant procedure. The uncertainties in the file have been scaled to accomodate this degradation using the current best state of knowledge. |
