This article:

1. Provides insights for considering the time-varying geoid, ellipsoidal and orthometric heights for the realization of the International Height Reference Frame (IHRF) as well as for fulfilling the contemporary geodetic scientific purposes and high-precision applications associated with these heights,

2. Summarizes the key outcomes of the project titled “Assessment of orthometric/normal height changes and their impact on the realization of the International Height Reference Frame (IHRF); cf. https://projekty.ncn.gov.pl/en/index.php?projekt_id=531440 and https://projekty.ncn.gov.pl/opisy/531440-en.pdf,

3. Recaps the fruitful collaboration between the Institute of Geodesy and Cartography (IGiK), Warsaw, Poland and Queen’s University, Kingston, Canada, and

4. Boosts the PhD research of the PhD student Samuel Milki Yadeta, as it is the third scientific paper that he contributed to as an author/co-author.
