Moho Geometry Estimation Beneath the Gulf of Guinea From Satellite Gravity Data Based on a Regularized Non‐Linear Gravity Inversion

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, 2023
In this work, we present a new gravimetric Moho model over the Gulf of Guinea computed from the inversion of the global gravity EIGEN‐6C4 model. The computation procedure contains a regularized non‐linear inversion algorithm.

Evaluation of the recent high-degree combined global gravity-field models for geoid modelling over Kenya

open access: yesGeodesy and Cartography, 2020
This study carries out an evaluation of the recent high-degree combined global gravity-field models (EGM2008, EIGEN-6C4, GECO and SGG-UGM-1) over Kenya. The evaluation is conducted using observed geoid undulations (18 data points, mainly in Nairobi area)

Selection of an optimum global gravitational model for geological mapping of Afikpo and Anambra Basins in Nigeria

open access: yesGeodesy and Cartography, 2022
Combined Global Gravitational Models (GGMs) are being used in numerous geoscience applications, most notably for gravimetric geoid modeling (in geodesy) and for geological mapping and geophysical explorations (in the Earth’s sciences).

Determination of the height of Mount Everest using the shallow layer method

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2021
Shallow layer method (SLM) based on the definition of the geoid can determine the gravity field inside the shallow layer. In this study, the orthometric height of Mount Everest (HME) is calculated based on SLM, in which the key is to construct the ...

Assessment of hybrid geoids in Chile and Spain, combining GGM and GNSS/Leveling observations

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2021
This research presents the results for analyses done to five geopotential global models (GGM), comparing them with ground data from GNSS and leveling in heterogenic zones from the geodetic perspective, in Chile and Spain.

Uncertainty of Low‐Degree Space Gravimetry Observations: Surface Processes Versus Earth's Core Signal

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 128, Issue 7, July 2023., 2023
Abstract Space gravity measurements have been mainly used to study the temporal mass variations at the Earth's surface and within the mantle. Nevertheless, mass variations due to the Earth's core might be observable in the gravity field variations as measured by Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) and GRACE Follow‐On satellites.

Assessments of recent Global Geopotential Models based on GPS/levelling and gravity data along coastal zones of Egypt

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2023
The orthometric height has an essential role in a variety of civil engineering projects and it is defined as the length of the curved plumbline from a point (on the earth surface) to its intersection with the geoid surface. Leveling process is considered

Crustal density structure and flexure mechanism of the Tarim Basin, China, constrained by latest in situ gravity observations

open access: yesTerra Nova, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 83-90, April 2023., 2023
Abstract The crustal density structure in the Tarim Basin, NW China in response to the plate flexure is so far poorly constrained. We present new insights into the crustal density structure of the Tarim Basin using gravity/GNSS data from 728 mobile stations.
