New extended thin-sheet approximation for geodynamic applications—I. Model formulation [PDF]
Thin-sheet approximations are widely used in geodynamics because of their potential for fast computation of 3-D lithospheric deformations using simple numerical techniques.

A stretching model to explain the salado basin (Argentina) [PDF]
Salado Basin, placed in Buenos Aires province, Argentina, is one of the most studiedsedimentary basins of the area because it curiously presents a significative positive residual Bouguer anomaly.Several models were proposed to explain this gravimetric ...

Studies of oceanic tectonics based on GEOS-3 satellite altimetry [PDF]
Using statistical analysis, geoidal admittance (the relationship between the ocean geoid and seafloor topography) obtained from GEOS-3 altimetry was compared to various model admittances.

Crustal structure and rift flank uplift of the Adare Trough, Antarctica [PDF]
The Adare Trough, located 100 km northeast of Cape Adare, Antarctica, represents the extinct third arm of a Tertiary spreading ridge between East and West Antarctica. It is characterized by pronounced asymmetric rift flanks elevated up to over 2 km above

Impact of GRM: New evidence from the Soviet Union [PDF]
Gravity information released by the Soviet Union allows the quantitative assessment of how the geopotential research mission (GRM) mission might effect the ability to use global gravity data for continental tectonic interpretation.

Ocean dynamics of outer solar system satellites
Ocean worlds are prevalent in the solar system. Focusing on Enceladus, Titan, Europa, and Ganymede, I use rotating convection theory and numerical simulations to predict ocean currents and the potential for ice-ocean coupling.
