to solve the geodetic boundary-value problem the gravity anomalies have to be continued from the earth's surface down onto the geoid surface. helmert’s gravity anomalies (multiplied by the geocentric radius) are harmonic above the geoid. it is thus possible to use them in the poisson solution of the inverse dirichlet boundary value problem to get their values on the geoid. the downward con...

The gravity field and derivatives generated with the high resolution EIGEN-6C2 gravity model which includes satellite gravity data of GOCE (Gravity field and steady-state Ocean Circulation Explorer) has been utilized for geological appraisal of the Singhbhum-Orissa Craton, India. The GOCE only field gravity data and in situ gravity data of the same area have been utilized for comparative assess...

The gravity anomaly field over the whole Earth obtained by the GOCE satellite is a revolutionary tool to reveal geologic information on a continental scale for the large areas where conventional gravity measurements have yet to be made. It is, however, necessary to isolate the near-surface geologic signal from the contributions of thickness variations in the crust and lithosphere and the isosta...

Detection of subsurface structures by means of gravity method can be used to determine mass distribution and density contrast of rock units. This distribution could be detected by different geophysical methods, especially gravity method. However, gravity techniques have some drawbacks and can't be always successful in distinguishing subsurface structures. Performance of the gravity technique co...

As one of the world’s oldest continents, Australia has experienced a complicated geological history and thus has a distinctive landscape and an extensively weathered topography. As such, the gravity field of Australia behaves differently to that in other countries. This paper investigates the features of the Australian gravity field. The methods used are a simple statistical comparison, Fourier...

An introduction to the Bouguer anomaly map of Finland is presented. Anomaly sources from surface to upper mantle are discussed both qualitatively and quantitatively. Related density variations are reviewed. The article is based on gravity data from the Finnish Geodetic Institute supplemented by petrophysical and gravity data from the Geological Survey of Finland. The Finnish Geodetic Institute ...

An image processing technique called the cellular neural network (CNN) approach is used in this study to locate geological features giving rise to gravity anomalies such as faults or the boundary of two geologic zones. CNN is a stochastic image processing technique based on template optimization using the neighborhood relationships of cells. These cells can be characterized by a functional bloc...
