Localized spectral analysis on the sphere

MA Wieczorek, FJ Simons - Geophysical Journal International, 2005 - academic.oup.com
It is often advantageous to investigate the relationship between two geophysical data sets in
the spectral domain by calculating admittance and coherence functions. While there exist …

Gravity anomalies, flexure and the elastic thickness structure of the India–Eurasia collisional system

TA Jordan, AB Watts - Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 2005 - Elsevier
We have used Bouguer gravity anomaly and topography data to determine the equivalent
elastic thickness of the lithosphere, Te in the region of the India–Eurasia collisional system …

Elastic thickness structure of South America estimated using wavelets and satellite-derived gravity data

A Tassara, C Swain, R Hackney, J Kirby - Earth and Planetary Science …, 2007 - Elsevier
We used a wavelet formulation of the classical spectral isostatic analysis to invert satellite-
derived gravity and topography/bathymetry for elastic thickness (Te) over South America and …

The relationship between depth, age and gravity in the oceans

AG Crosby, D McKenzie… - Geophysical Journal …, 2006 - academic.oup.com
We reassess the applicability of the thermal plate cooling model to the subsidence of the
North Pacific, Atlantic and North Indian Ocean Basins. We use a new numerical plate model …

Effective elastic thickness of Africa and its relationship to other proxies for lithospheric structure and surface tectonics

M Pérez-Gussinyé, M Metois, M Fernández… - Earth and Planetary …, 2009 - Elsevier
Detailed information on lateral variations in lithospheric properties can aid in understanding
how surface deformation relates to deep Earth processes. The effective elastic thickness, Te …

The long-term strength of Europe and its implications for plate-forming processes

M Pérez-Gussinyé, AB Watts - Nature, 2005 - nature.com
Field-based geological studies show that continental deformation preferentially occurs in
young tectonic provinces rather than in old cratons. This partitioning of deformation suggests …

Effective elastic thickness of South America and its implications for intracontinental deformation

M Pérez‐Gussinyé, AR Lowry… - Geochemistry …, 2007 - Wiley Online Library
The flexural rigidity or effective elastic thickness of the lithosphere, Te, primarily depends on
its thermal gradient and composition. Consequently, maps of the lateral variability of Te in …
