Procedure of data processing -- background models
(1) Static background model: EIGEN-GL04C up to degree 150.
(2) Solid Earth tides and solid Earth pole tide: IERS-2003 convention.
(3) Ocean tides: FES2004 model. 9 diurnal/semi-diurnal and 4 long-period constituents are considered up to degree 80. Ocean pole tide: Desai model up to degree 30 is considered.
(4) Atmosphere and oceanic variability: AOD1B release 4 products up to degree 100 are used.
(5) N-body perturbations: DE-405 ephemerides.(6) General relativistic perturbations.(7) Gravity field model correction obtained at the previous
iteration.

Conclusions• A new approach has been developed at DEOS to recover
temporal gravity field variations from GRACE data. The approach is based on an iterative processing of inter-satellite ranges with a frequency-dependent data weighting.
• Three-year series (2003-205) of Earth's gravity field variations is produced. Years 2006-2007 will be processed in the near future.
• Computed models are in a good agreement with the GLDAS model of global hydrological variations. Further validation and public distribution is pending.
