Analysis and geological interpretation of gravity data from GEOS-3 altimeter [PDF]

open access: yes
A number of detailed gravimetric geoids of portions of the world's oceans from marine gravity measurements were constructed. The geoids were constructed by computing 1 x 1 deg or 10 x 10 deg averages of free-air anomaly data and subtracting these values ...

Origin and thermal evolution of Mars [PDF]

open access: yes
The thermal evolution of Mars is governed by subsolidus mantle convection beneath a thick lithosphere. Models of the interior evolution are developed by parameterizing mantle convective heat transport in terms of mantle viscosity, the superadiabatic ...

Flexural bending of the Zagros foreland basin [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
We constrain and model the geometry of the Zagros foreland to assess the equivalent elastic thickness of the northern edge of the Arabian plate and the loads that have originated due to the Arabia–Eurasia collision.

Lateral uniformity of India Plate strength over central and eastern Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The current understanding of the Himalayan lithosphere stems mostly from cross-sections through the range at the longitude of the Kathmandu Basin. In this paper we laterally extend the analyses of structures and rheology along the Nepal Himalayas between

Gravitational spreading of Danu, Freyja and Maxwell Montes, Venus [PDF]

open access: yes
The potential energy of elevated terrain tends to drive the collapse of the topography. This process of gravitational spreading is likely to be more important on Venus than on Earth because the higher surface temperature weakens the crust.

Is Ishtar Terra a thickened basaltic crust? [PDF]

open access: yes
The mountain belts of Ishtar Terra and the surrounding tesserae are interpreted as compressional regions. The gravity and surface topography of western Ishtar Terra suggest a thick crust of 60-110 km that results from crustal thickening through tectonic ...
