Inferring Long‐Term Tectonic Uplift Patterns From Bayesian Inversion of Fluvially‐Incised Landscapes
Abstract Earth surface processes encode the combined forcing of tectonics and climate in topography. Separating their contributions is essential for using landscapes as quantitative records of crustal deformation. Here, we develop a method to invert non‐dimensionalized, spatially variable fields of long‐term rock uplift and rock erodibility from ...

Frequency Response Analysis of State Space Models for Time Series Analysis
Abstract State space models are well‐suited for time series in which the evolution of variables cannot be well represented by deterministic basis functions. A key challenge in using state space models is the selection of the noise variance parameters. To better understand their impact on the model's filtering behavior, we derive the frequency response ...

During recent years the question of the conditions of stress and strain in the earth's crust has received a very considerable amount of attention. Perhaps one of the most fruitful lines of inquiry has been that which has aimed at determining the connexion between the varying densities of the crustal rocks and the different degrees of relief of the ...

A Novel Iterative Stable Algorithm for Global Moho Modeling in the Spherical Harmonic Domain
Abstract The Mohorovičić discontinuity (Moho) marks the boundary between Earth's crust and the underlying mantle, serving as a critical interface for understanding Earth's structure, composition, and geodynamic processes. This study introduces a novel iterative and stable algorithm for global Moho depth inversion.

Glacial isostasy and plate motion [PDF]
Abstract The influence of glacial-isostatic adjustment (GIA) on the motion of tectonic plates is usually neglected. Employing a recently developed numerical approach, we examine the effect of glacial loading on the motion of the Earth’s tectonic plates where we consider an elastic lithosphere of laterally variable strength and the plates losely ...

Abstract The Capricorn Orogen, central to the West Australian Craton (WAC) and flanked by the Pilbara Craton to the north and the Yilgarn Craton to the south, records complex tectonic processes spanning from the Archean to the Neoproterozoic, including two major Paleoproterozoic collisions—the 2,215–2,145 Ma Ophthalmia Orogeny and the 2,005–1,950 Ma ...

Inverse problem for the gravimetric modeling of the crust-mantle density contrast
The gravimetric inverse problem for finding the Moho density contrast is formulated in this study. The solution requires that the crust density structure and the Moho depths are a priori known, for instance, from results of seismic studies.

Deriving Intertidal Topography From SWOT Data and Sentinel‐2 Data
Abstract The Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission, initially designed to observe oceans and inland waters, proves valuable for mapping intertidal flat topography. This study presents a fusion method that integrates freely available SWOT interferometric altimetry data with Sentinel‐2 imagery.

The distribution of the rheological properties of the lithosphere in space, and their variations in time, have a profound effect on the resulting tectonic deformation.
