Deformation of the Earth by surface loads
1.7K
TL;DR: In this article, the static deformation of an elastic half-space by surface pressure is reviewed and a brief mention is made of methods for solving the problem when the medium is plane-strategized, but the major emphasis is on the solution for spherical, radially stratified, gravitating earth models.

Abstract: The static deformation of an elastic half-space by surface pressure is reviewed. A brief mention is made of methods for solving the problem when the medium is plane stratified, but the major emphasis is on the solution for spherical, radially stratified, gravitating earth models. Love-number calculations are outlined, and from the Love numbers, Green's functions are formed for the surface mass-load boundary-value problem. Tables of mass-load Green's functions, computed for realistic earth models, are given, so that the displacements, tilts, accelerations, and strains at the earth's surface caused by any static load can be found by evaluating a convolution integral over the loaded region.

Relation between GRACE-derived surface mass variations and precipitation over Australia
TL;DR: In this article, surface mass changes obtained from time-variable gravity observations of the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE) satellite mission and precipitation data from the Australian Bureau of Metrology and the Tropical Rainfall Measurement Mission are analyzed over the Australian continent to determine whether there is a statistically significant correlation between them.

Resolving sea level contributions by identifying fingerprints in time-variable gravity and altimetry
TL;DR: In this paper, the ability of the GRACE gravimetry mission and Jason-1 altimetry to resolve ice and glacier induced contributions to sea level rise, by means of a fingerprint method, was studied.

Elasto-gravitational deformation, relative gravity changes and earth dynamics
Jacques Hinderer,Hilaire Legros +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, a Love number formalism is used to express the global deformation induced by volume potentials (tides, variations in the Earth's rotation) or boundary conditions (in pressure, transverse stress, load) at the interfaces between the fluid layers and the solid mantle.

TL;DR: A-10 field-portable absolute gravity meter was developed in conjunction with this project and has proven to be a key element in the success of the 4D methodology as discussed by the authors.

Some analytical solutions for the viscoelastic gravitational relaxation of a two-layer non-self-gravitating incompressible spherical earth
Patrick Wu,Zhihong Ni +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, analytical solutions for incompressible, non-self-gravitating, two-layer spherical earth models are derived and presented, and it is shown that a jump in density will introduce a buoyancy mode, whereas a discontinuity in the value of Maxwell time will introduce two viscoelastic (or transition) modes simultaneously.
