TLDR
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.read more

香港GPS基准站坐标序列特征分析 = Characteristics of daily position time series from the Hong Kong GPS fiducial network
TL;DR: In this article, a spatial filtering algorithm based on principal component analysis is employed to remove the common mode errors from the daily position time series, which can be described as a combination of variable white noise and flicker noise.

On the observed annual gravity variation and the effect of sea surface height variations
Tadahiro Sato,Yoichi Fukuda,Yuichi Aoyama,Herbert McQueen,Kazuo Shibuya,Yoshiaki Tamura,Kazuyoshi Asari,Masatsugu Ooe +7 more
TL;DR: Based on two datasets of sea surface height (SSH) variations, the Parallel Ocean Climate Model (POCM) [J. Geophys. Res. 101 (C10) (1996) 25779] and the TOPEX/POSEIDON (T/P) altimeter, the authors analyzed the effect of SSH variations on gravity observations.

Uniqueness in the Inversion of Inaccurate Gross Earth Data
George E. Backus,Freeman Gilbert +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, it was shown that a given set G of measured gross Earth data permits such a construction of localized averages, and if so, how to find the shortest length scale over which G gives a local average structure at a particular depth if the variance of the error in computing that local average from G is to be less than a specified amount.
