On accurate geoid modeling: derivation of dirichlet problems that govern geoidal undulations and geoid modeling by means of the finite difference method and a hybrid method

The geoid is the reference surface used to measure heights (orthometric). These are used to study any mass variability in the Earth system. As the Earth is represented by an oblate spheroid (Ellipsoid), the geoid is determined by geoidal undulations (N) which are the separation between these surface...
