Studies of oceanic tectonics based on GEOS-3 satellite altimetry [PDF]

open access: yes
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.

Mechanisms of crustal deformation in the western US [PDF]

open access: yes
The deformation processes in the western United States were studied, considering both deterministic models and random or statistical models. The role of the intracrustal delamination and mechanisms of crustal thinning were also examined.

Seismic and isotopic evidence for depth-dependent mantle sources of intraplate basalts from Eastern China

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment
The origin of intraplate basalts remains controversial, despite numerous isotope and seismic studies. Here we employ thermodynamic modeling with MAGEMin to integrate the Sr-Nd-Hf isotopes of basaltic volcanics with the seismic velocities of their mantle ...

Distribution of Bouguer gravity anomaly and crust and upper mantle in the Antarctic region

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1986
Bouguer gravity anomaly south of 45°S was derived from the newly provided data of free-air anomaly and topography, and its implications in the crust and upper mantle structure of the land and its marginal ocean area were discussed from the viewpoint of ...

A multilayer model of time dependent deformation following an earthquake on a strike-slip fault [PDF]

open access: yes
A multilayer model of the Earth to calculate finite element of time dependent deformation and stress following an earthquake on a strike slip fault is discussed. The model involves shear properties of an elastic upper lithosphere, a standard viscoelastic

Postseismic surface deformations due to lithospheric and asthenospheric viscoelasticity [PDF]

open access: yes
A model is proposed for post seismic surface deformations attributing them to lithospheric and asthenospheric viscoelasticity. The model predicts that the deformations due to lithospheric viscoelasticity depend on the ratio of the effective shear modulus
