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 uppermost masses of the lithosphere notably the land topography, bathymetry and ice make a significant contribution to the gravity signal captured by ESA’s GOCE gravity mission [1,2]. This circumstance is used 1) to evaluate ESA GOCE gravity field models of all generations, 2) to evaluate various topographic data sets and 3) to compute a global Bouguer gravity anomaly map. All of the above ...

As one of the world’s oldest continents, Australia has experienced a complicated geological and geomorphological history. As such, the gravity field of Australia behaves differently to that reported in other countries. This paper investigates the relative roughness of three types of gravity anomaly (freeair, refined Bouguer and topographic-isostatic) using statistical and graphical comparisons,...

nowadays, combination of gps heights with orthometric heights, derived from precise leveling, is broadly used to obtain point-wise solutions of the geoid, which is called “gps/leveling geoid”. the “gps/leveling geoid” is commonly used to constrain the gravimetric geoid solutions in a least squares surface fitting process. in this paper, unlike the usual application, the “gps/leveling geoid” is ...

39 This paper describes the computation and analysis of the Earth's short-scale gravity field 40 through high-resolution gravity forward modelling using the Shuttle Radar Topography 41 Mission (SRTM) global topography model. We use the established residual terrain modelling 42 technique along with advanced computational resources and massive parallelisation to 43 convert the high-pass filtered ...

The new EGM2008 global gravity field model is evaluated by comparisons of geoid heights computed from the model with those available at GPS levelling stations in various regions and by computing sea surface topography solutions from the difference between the mean sea surface and the geoid from this model. In order to identify how good the model performs the same tests also are performed for ot...
