Abstract:Lateral density variations in Earth's structure are reflected in gravity data which can be used, together with other types of geological and geophysical information, to reveal Earth's structure. The well-known limitation of potential field data is the lack of information about the depth of structural heterogeneity. The gravity signal caused by individual lithospheric layers, such as sediments, crystalline crust, or mantle lithosphere, can be much larger than their sum (as well as the observed data) due to the … Show more
