Abstract

In this paper, we explore the thermoelastic seasonal deformation in Chinese mainland based on the 260 GPS sites of crustal movement observation network of China (CMONOC). The results show that the change of land surface temperature can induce remarkable surface deformation in China. The most affected site is HLAR in Inner Mongolia, China. Its seasonal amplitude of surface deformation is about~2.293mm. and the site HIYS in Hainan is the least affected. The seasonal amplitude of surface deformation is about~0.177mm. Applying the thermoelastic seasonal deformation information in GRACE data analysis and the Mass loading models (MODEL), refined three-dimensional seasonal deformation map are derived. Taking GPS measurements as references, refined results show that the annual deformation derived from the MODEL and the GRACE data have been improved by about 6%,6%,2%;16%,5%,15% in the east, north and height components respectively.
