The Swarm satellites provide highly accurate GPS data, from which
we are able to derive monthly gravity fields, which quantify the
Earth mass transport processes at the spatial scales longer than
roughly 1500km (SH degree 13). To improve the signal content of these
models, we combine individual solutions produced from four different
gravity field inversion strategies, namely the Celestial Mechanics
Approach (Beutler et al. 2010), the Decorrelated Acceleration Approach
(Bezdek et al. 2014), the Short-Arcs Approach (Mayer-Gürr 2006) and
the Improved Energy Balance Approach (Shang et al. 2015). We combine
the individual solutions at the level of Normal Equations in order
to best exploit the sensitivity of the different approaches and produce
the highest quality of gravity field solutions possible. We illustrate
the major geophysical signals that Swarm is able to observe at the
surface of the Earth, in the form of trends and periodic variations.
We also compare these estimates with the corresponding GRACE-based
estimates, considering the periods when the two data sets overlap,
and assess the impact of the Swarm-based Earth mass transport studies
during the absence of GRACE and GRACE-FO operations.
