Scientific paper

Analyses of three new satellites at 16th-order resonance (1971-106A, 1972-05B, and 1980-43A) are combined with two previous analyses in order to determine values for individual harmonic coefficients of order 16 and degree 17, 19, 21, 23, and 25. The coefficients of degree 17, 19, and 21 have a mean standard deviation corresponding to an accuracy of 2 cm in geoid height, slightly better than the nominal accuracy of the 16th-order coefficients in curent comprehensive models of the gravity field. These current models are found to have deficiencies, particularly at high latitudes.
