Summary. A total of 3708 1 × 1° free-air gravity anomaly averages have been used to construct a new 1 × 1° gravimetric geoid of the Northwest Pacific Ocean. The 1 × 1° averages are based on a compilation of 147000 surface ship and pendulum gravity measurements. The gravimetric geoid reveals information in the geoid of the Northwest Pacific not present in currently used satellite derived models. The RMS difference between the 1 × 1° geoid and satellite derived models is about ±6 m. Difference geoid undulations range from a maximum of +19 m over the Hawaiian ridge to a minimum of −31 m over the junction of the Kuril and Aleutian trenches. The Hawaiian swell is associated with a geoidal high of up to +15 m with wavelengths of about 2200 km and the topographic rises seaward of deep-sea trenches are associated with geoidal highs of up to 4m with wavelengths of about 220–900 km. The main difference between the gravimetric geoid and the satellite derived models occurs over the Pacific basin where discrepancies reach +10 m with wavelengths of 4000 km. The agreement between the gravi-metric geoid and Skylab-4 and Geos-3 altimeter data is close for wavelengths greater than about 300 km but poor for shorter wavelengths. 相似文献

Summary. A new set of 1×1° mean free-air anomalies in the Indian Ocean is determined on the basis of previously published free-air anomaly maps (Talwani & Kahle) and the most recent Lamont surface ship gravity measurements. The data are then used to compute a (total) 1×1° gravimetric Indian Ocean geoid. The computation is carried out by combining the Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) GEM-6 geoid and a difference geoid that corresponds to the differences between the set of 1×1° surface gravity values and the GEM-6 gravity anomalies. The difference geoid is highest over the Madagascar Ridge (+ 20 m) and lowest over the Timor Trough (-30 m). The total geoid is compared with GEOS-3 radar altimeter derived geoid profiles and geophysical implications are discussed. 相似文献

Non-linear altimetric geoid inversion for lithospheric elastic thickness and crustal density 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
The inversion of high-resolution geoid anomaly maps derived from satellite altimetry should allow one to retrieve the lithospheric elastic thickness, T e , and crustal density, c . Indeed, the bending of a lithospheric plate under the load of a seamount depends on both parameters, and the associated geoid anomaly is correspondingly dependent on the two parameters. The difference between the observed and modelled geoid signatures is estimated by a cost function, J , of the two variables, T e and c . We show that this cost function forms a valley structure along which many local minima appear, the global minimum of J corresponding to the true values of the lithospheric parameters. Classical gradient methods fail to find this global minimum because they converge to the first local minimum of J encountered, so that the final parameter estimate strongly depends on the starting pair of values ( T e , c ). We here implement a non-linear optimization algorithm to recover these two parameters from altimetry data. We demonstrate from the inversion of synthetic data that this approach ensures robust estimates of T e and c by activating two search phases alternately: a gradient phase to find a local minimum of J , and a tunnelling phase through high values of the cost function. The accuracy of the solution can be improved by a search in an iteratively restricted parameter subspace. Applying our non-linear inversion to the Great Meteor Seamount geoid data, we further show that the inverse problem is intrinsically ill-posed. As a consequence, minute geoid (or gravity) data errors can induce large changes in any recovery of lithospheric elastic thickness and crustal density. 相似文献
