What Does GPM Stand For?

GPM stands for Geopotential Meter

The Geopotential Meter (GPM) is an advanced scientific instrument designed to measure gravitational potential differences in geophysical studies. By providing precise data on variations in the Earth's gravitational field, GPM facilitates the analysis of geological structures, hydrological processes, and tectonic activities. Its applications are essential in fields such as geodesy, oceanography, and atmospheric sciences, enabling researchers to enhance understanding of Earth’s physical properties and behavior.
