The thermomechanic evolution of the lithosphere–upper mantle system during Calabrian subduction is analysed using a 2-D finite element approach, in which the lithosphere is compositionally stratified into crust and mantle. Gravity and topography predictions are cross-checked with observed gravity and topography patterns of the Calabrian region. Modelling results indicate that the gravity pattern in the arc-trench region is shaped by the sinking of light material, belonging to both the overriding and subduction plates. The sinking of light crustal material, up to depths of the order of 100–150 km is the ultimate responsible for the peculiar gravity signature of subduction, characterized by a minimum of gravity anomaly located at the trench, bounded by two highs located on the overriding and subducting plates, with a variation in magnitude of the order of 200 mGal along a wavelength of 200 km, in agreement with the isostatically compensated component of gravity anomaly observed along a transect crossing the Calabrian Arc, from the Tyrrhenian to the Ionian Seas. The striking agreement between the geodetic retrieved profiles and the modelled ones in the trench region confirms the crucial role of compositional stratification of the lithosphere in the subduction process and the correctness of the kinematic hypotheses considered in our modelling, that the present-day configuration of crust–mantle system below the Calabrian arc results from trench's retreat at a rate of about 3 cm yr−1 , followed by gravitational sinking of the subducted slab in the last 5 Myr. 相似文献

Choice of norm for the density distribution of the Earth 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Summary. The determination of the density distribution of the Earth from gravity data is called the inverse gravimetric problem. A unique solution to this problem may be obtained by introducing a priori data concerning the covariance of density anomalies. This is equivalent to requiring the density to fulfil a minimum norm condition. The generally used norm is the one equal to the integral of the square of the density distribution ( L2 -norm), the use of which implies that blocks of constant density are uncorrelated. It is shown that for harmonic anomalous density distributions this leads to an external gravity field with a power spectrum (degree-variances) which tends too slowly to zero, i.e. implying gravity anomalies much less correlated than actually observed. It is proposed to use a stronger norm, equal to the integral of the square sum of the derivatives of the density distribution. As a consequence of this, base functions which are constant within blocks, are no longer a natural choice when solving the inverse gravimetric problem. Instead a block with a linearly varying density may be used. A formula for the potential of such a block is derived. 相似文献

In this paper a new method to compute in a fast and reliable way the collocation solution is presented. In order to speed up the numerical procedures, some restrictions on input data are needed.The basic assumption is that data are gridded and homogeneous; this implies that the autocovariance matrix entering in the collocation formula is of Toeplitz type. In particular, if observations are placed on a two dimensional planar grid, the autocovariance matrix is a symmetric block Toeplitz matrix and each block is itself a symmetric Toeplitz matrix (Toeplitz/Toeplitz structure). The analysis can be extended to a regular geographical grid, considered as a generalization of the planar one, taking into account the distortions on the Toeplitz/Toeplitz structure induced by the convergence of the meridians. The devised method is based on a combined application of the Preconditioned Conjugate Gradient Method and of the Fast Fourier Transform. This allows a proper exploitation of the Toeplitz/Toeplitz structure of the autocovariance matrix in computing the collocation solution.The numerical tests proved that the application of this algorithm leads to a relevant decrease in CPU time if compared with standard methods used to solve a collocation problem (Cholesky, Levinson). 相似文献

The analysis of Global Positioning System (GPS) coordinates time series is a valuable tool in quantifying crustal deformations. The longer continuous GPS time series allow estimation of nonlinear signatures. As a matter of fact, besides the linear and periodic behaviors, other relevant signals are present in such time series as the so-called transient deformations. They can be related to, e.g., slow slip events, which play a crucial role in studying fault mechanisms. To give reliable estimates of these signals, an appropriate and rigorous approach for defining the deterministic and the stochastic models of the data is needed. We prove that the theory of the second order stationary random process (SOSRP) can be used to describe the stochastic behavior of the daily GPS time series. In particular, the second order stationarity condition has to be verified for the daily GPS coordinate time series to be described as a SOSRP. This method has been already used for modeling the gravity field of the earth and in predicting/filtering problems, and this work shows that it can also be useful for characterizing the colored noise in the GPS time series. 相似文献

Geophysical interpretation of a high-resolution seismic refraction profile in the Northern Apennines
Giancarlo Biella Roberto De Franco Martina Demartin Riccardo Barzaghi Fernando Sanso Domenico Sguerso 《地学学报》1994,6(1):45-53
A combined seismic and gravimetric interpretation in the Northern Apennines area (Italy) is presented. To the knowledge of the authors, this is one of the few attempts to apply tomographic methodology to a seismic refraction profile. This procedure, together with the classical interpretation for defining lower reflectors, led to the formulation of quite an accurate model of the upper crust. A gravity analysis was performed concurrently taking into account the seismic results at different depths which correspond to different frequency domains in the gravity signal. While the medium- and high-frequency patterns have been solved by trial-and-error, the regional trend has been modelled applying the collocation procedure to the gravity data. 相似文献

A new methodology for computing the gravitational effect of a spherical tesseroid has been devised and implemented. The methodology is based on the rotation from the global Earth-Centred Rotational reference frame to the local Earth-Centred P-Rotational reference frame, referred to the computation point P, and it requires knowledge of the height and the angular extension of each topographic column. After rotation, the gravitational effect of the tesseroid is computed via the effect of a sector of the spherical zonal band. In this respect, two possible procedures for handling the rotated tesseroids have been proposed and tested. The results obtained with the devised methodology are in good agreement with those derived by applying other existing methodologies. 相似文献

The paper has two main targets: to prove by numerical experiment on simulated data (exact solution a priori known) that the
integrated approach gives superior results that can’t be achieved neither by pure (“incorrect”) λ.s. adjustment nor by a λ.s.
adjustment of observations corrected by some a priori long wave length gravity model; to find among many strategies for approximate
solutions, one which preserves most of the features of the exact one, although with a much simpler numerical structure. 相似文献

This paper deals with spectral techniques applied to geodetic problems. The solutions of the Inverse Stokes problem and of the Overdetermined Boundary Value Problem have been obtained applying The Wiener principle directly in the spectral domain. The resulting estimator for the Inverse Stokes problem is a low pass filter which is tuned by the covariance structure of the data while the one solving the Overdetermined Boundary Value Problem is nearly a weighted mean of the two spectra of the boundary data. Numerical examples on simulated data have been carried out to test the derived estimators. 相似文献

The determination of local geoid models has traditionally been carried out on land and at sea using gravity anomaly and satellite
altimetry data, while it will be aided by the data expected from satellite missions such as those from the Gravity field and
steady-state ocean circulation explorer (GOCE). To assess the performance of heterogeneous data combination to local geoid
determination, simulated data for the central Mediterranean Sea are analyzed. These data include marine and land gravity anomalies,
altimetric sea surface heights, and GOCE observations processed with the space-wise approach. A spectral analysis of the aforementioned
data shows their complementary character. GOCE data cover long wavelengths and account for the lack of such information from
gravity anomalies. This is exploited for the estimation of local covariance function models, where it is seen that models
computed with GOCE data and gravity anomaly empirical covariance functions perform better than models computed without GOCE
data. The geoid is estimated by different data combinations and the results show that GOCE data improve the solutions for
areas covered poorly with other data types, while also accounting for any long wavelength errors of the adopted reference
model that exist even when the ground gravity data are dense. At sea, the altimetric data provide the dominant geoid information.
However, the geoid accuracy is sensitive to orbit calibration errors and unmodeled sea surface topography (SST) effects. If
such effects are present, the combination of GOCE and gravity anomaly data can improve the geoid accuracy. The present work
also presents results from simulations for the recovery of the stationary SST, which show that the combination of geoid heights
obtained from a spherical harmonic geopotential model derived from GOCE with satellite altimetry data can provide SST models
with some centimeters of error. However, combining data from GOCE with gravity anomalies in a collocation approach can result
in the estimation of a higher resolution geoid, more suitable for high resolution mean dynamic SST modeling. Such simulations
can be performed toward the development and evaluation of SST recovery methods. 相似文献
