Abstract A widely accepted global model of glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) is based on ICE‐6G ice loading and 1D‐viscosity model VM5a, a viscosity profile which remains at odds with mantle convection constraints such as from geoid modeling. We explore 3D‐viscosity variations in models of GIA and show that a model with lateral viscosity variations ...

Seismic Imaging Reveals Ongoing Modification of Craton Margins in Northeast Asia
Abstract Cratonic margins are commonly modified, yet the processes responsible remain debated. The Korean Peninsula, situated between adjacent cratons, the Japan Trench, and a back‐arc system, provides a natural setting to investigate this problem. Using 4 years of dense seismic observations, we image upper‐mantle structure beneath the peninsula with P‐

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

Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission promises quasi‐global monitoring of glacial lakes, yet the elevation difference arising from its Ka‐band radar penetrating lake snow/ice cover remains unquantified. This poses a challenge to assessing their level changes.

Toward Constraining Ocean Estimates in Ice‐Covered Regions Using Sea Level Altimetry Data
Abstract Estimates of ice‐covered oceans are difficult to constrain using in situ observations, particularly if one needs broad spatiotemporal coverage of subsurface properties. Here we explore the value of sea level (ζ $\zeta $) data from the laser altimeter on ICESat‐2 and multi‐mission radar altimeter products distributed by the Archiving ...

MARINE GEOID UNDULATION ASSESSMENT OVER SOUTH CHINA SEA USING GLOBAL GEOPOTENTIAL MODELS AND AIRBORNE GRAVITY DATA [PDF]
Global geopotential models (GGMs) are vital in computing global geoid undulations heights. Based on the ellipsoidal height by Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) observations, the accurate orthometric height can be calculated by adding precise and ...

Abstract Shipboard gravity anomaly data provide high‐resolution information for a wide range of Earth and ocean science research as well as ground‐truthing US national geodetic modeling. Motivated by the end of life‐cycle for legacy Bell aerospace marine Gravity Meter system (BGM‐3) gravimeters onboard vessels in the U.S. Academic Research Fleet, a new

Near-zone Direct and Indirect Topographic Effects Based on the Rectangular Prism and Surface Element [PDF]
Helmert’s second method of condensation is an effective method for terrain reduction in the geoid and quasi-geoid determinations. Condensing the masses outside the geoid to a surface layer on the geoid produces several forms of topographic effects ...

Abstract Quantifying decadal‐scale erosion rates in tectonically active regions is essential for assessing landscape hazards and constraining sediment budgets. A key question in Earth surface processes is how contemporary erosion measurements influenced by recent climatic extremes relate to long‐term geological rates.
