Bouguer anomalies and lithosphere-crustal thickness in Uganda

Journal of Geodynamics, 1985
Recently, a model of the Standard African lithosphere was constructed using regional Bouguer anomalies (Brown and Girdler, 1980). Values of lithospheric and crustal thickness in this model are 100 km and 36.2 km, respectively. The corresponding value of Bouguer anomaly is —48 mgal. Bouguer anomalies of Uganda were averaged over 1° grids.

Finite element modeling of lower crustal flow: A model for crustal thickness variations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, 1991
Small‐scale convection beneath continental lithosphere is likely to initiate viscous flow in the ductile lower crust. Positive lithospheric bending will develop above upwelling mantle flow leading to a lateral squeezing out of crustal material from elevated areas which results in significant crustal thickness variations in its final stage. This process

Stresses in the lithosphere caused by crustal thickness inhomogeneities

Journal of Geophysical Research, 1973
A physical analysis is given of the state of stresses in the earth's lithosphere floating on the asthenosphere. Crustal thickness strongly varies in a horizontal direction and thus creates large variations in the potential energy stored in the crust. As a result, the crustal material tends to spread and to reduce crustal thickness inhomogeneities.
