changing altimetry information from satellites on the surface of seas and oceans, into anomaly gravity for example free air anomaly, is a fundamentally new method presented by researches. the determination of the free air gravity anomaly over the earth’s marine regions has led to a major improvement in our understanding of plate tectonic processes relating to oceanic ridges, the formation of ma...

generally, gravity anomaly is the difference between the observed acceleration of earth's gravity and a normal value. topography (all masses above geoid) plays a main role in definition of the gravity anomaly. based on modeling of the effect of topography, there are different models of gravity anomaly such as free-air and bouguer anomaly. the main goal of the bouguer anomaly is removing of...

to solve the geodetic boundary-value problem the gravity anomalies have to be continued from the earth's surface down onto the geoid surface. helmert’s gravity anomalies (multiplied by the geocentric radius) are harmonic above the geoid. it is thus possible to use them in the poisson solution of the inverse dirichlet boundary value problem to get their values on the geoid. the downward con...

Estimating the gravity anomaly causative bodies boundary can facilitate the gravity field interpretation. In this paper, 2D discrete wavelet transform (DWT) is employed as a method to delineate the boundary of the gravity anomaly sources. Hence, the GRACE’ satellite gravity data is decomposed using DWT. DWT decomposites a single approximation coefficients into four distinct components: the appr...

Introduction: Understanding the lunar gravity field can provide fundamental information about lunar internal structure, bulk composition, heat flow, and the duration of volcanism and tectonism. We aim to utilize the gravity field from the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission to reconstruct the history of lunar volcanic history. The high-resolution GRAIL gravity maps show tha...

in this paper, a new formula is applied for the calculation of gravity anomalies from a cylinder model representing a geological body. compared to conventional methods, this new development allows the cylinder to be freely oriented in space. 38 gravity forward models are produced each of which anomaly attributes are calculated. then a linear relationship is established between attributes and so...

using global free air gravity and topography data, first we have calculated a bouguer anomaly (ba) map for iranian plateau and then computed the residual isostasy anomaly map under the airy-heiskannen assumption. the term residual is used as to reflect the assumption of local isostatic compensation in contrast to a regional isostatic compensation. the value with which the gravity effect of the ...

High-resolution gravity data from the Gravity Recovery and Interior Laboratory (GRAIL) mission provide the opportunity to analyze the detailed gravity and crustal structure of impact features in the morphological transition from complex craters to peak-ring basins on the Moon. We calculate average radial profiles of free-air anomalies and Bouguer anomalies for peak-ring basins, protobasins, and...
