Seminario - Gravity for lithospheric structure studies
Author: Prof. Robert Tenzer
Abstract: The fundamental mathematical models for modeling the lithospheric density structure are presented and discussed. These models are then applied in global studies, focusing on a gravimetric recovery of the Moho density interface, the crustal structure modeling and representation and the investigation of the oceanic lithospheric structure.
