A Comparison of Gravimetric, Isostatic, and Spectral Decomposition Methods for a Possible Enhancement of the Mantle Signature in the Long-Wavelength Geoidal Geometry

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
A long-wavelength geoidal geometry characterizes the most pronounced features of the Indian Ocean geoid low and the West Pacific and North Atlantic geoid highs.

Methodology for optimizing heights in the Amsterdam system based on regional and global geoid/quasi-geoid models

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics
The article presents a methodology for transitioning to the Amsterdam height system based on utilizing global and regional geoid/quasi-geoid models. The study was conducted for the Polish-Ukrainian cross-border sector and expanded to the entire territory

Error calibration of quasi-geoidal, normal and ellipsoidal heights of Sweden using variance component estimation

open access: yesContributions to Geophysics and Geodesy, 2010
Errors of estimated parameters in an adjustment process should be scaled according to the size of the estimated residuals or misclosures. After computing a quasigeoid (geoid), its biases and tilts, due to existence of systematic errors in the ...

Age, Depth, and Residual Depth Anomalies in the North Pacific: Implications for Thermal Models of the Lithosphere and Upper Mantle [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
We present an empirical basement depth versus age relation for the North Pacific Ocean, based on the statistical treatment of an ocean-wide gridded data set.

Mapping Escolar (Lepidocybium flavobrunneum) in Motion: Oceanographic Forces Shaping Its Habitat in the Southwestern South Atlantic, With Insights From Fishers' Perceptions

open access: yesFisheries Oceanography, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lepidocybium flavobrunneum [Smith, 1843], commonly known as escolar, is a large pelagic species, important for global and local fisheries, particularly in the southwestern South Atlantic Ocean (SWAO), where it constitutes a significant portion of the catch.

Joint inversion estimate of regional glacial isostatic adjustment in Antarctica considering a lateral varying Earth structure (ESA STSE Project REGINA) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
A major uncertainty in determining the mass balance of the Antarctic ice sheet from measurements of satellite gravimetry, and to a lesser extent satellite altimetry, is the poorly known correction for the ongoing deformation of the solid Earth caused by

Elevated Asthenospheric Temperature Driving the Partial Melting of Enriched Lithospheric Mantle Feeding the DM‐EM1 Mixing‐Type Magmatism of the Jingpohu Volcano in Eastern NE China: Evidence From Teleseismic P‐Wave Attenuation

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract The origin of a binary‐mixing of DM and EM1 sources for the Cenozoic intraplate volcanism in eastern Northeast China is yet unclear. Seismic attenuation imaging is a tool that can shed light on this question. Here we present the first map of teleseismic P‐wave attenuation across Northeast China.

ETH-GQS: An estimation of geoid-to-quasigeoid separation over Ethiopia

open access: yesGeodesy and Geodynamics, 2022
The determination of accurate orthometric or normal heights remains one of the main challenges for the geodetic community in Ethiopia. These heights are required for geodetic and geodynamic scientific research as well as for extensive engineering ...

Uranus and Neptune: Shape and Rotation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Both Uranus and Neptune are thought to have strong zonal winds with velocities of several hundred meters per second. These wind velocities, however, assume solid-body rotation periods based on Voyager 2 measurements of periodic variations in the planets'
