This study aims to evaluate the accuracy of two latest high-resolution marine gravity models derived from satellite altimetry (DTU17 and SSv27.1) using shipborne gravity data and to pruduce high-precision gravity field over the Gulf of Guinea. The gross-errors affecting the shipborne gravity data have been removed by cross-validation technique to ensure better evaluation of gravity field models. The standard deviation σ of the differences between the measured and model gravity data drops from 9.96 mGal before the cross-validation to 6.28 mGal after this process. The comparison between the DTU17 and SSv27.1 gravity field models has been done in order to detect significant differences between them. The differences between the two models are quite small with a mean of 1.73 mGal and σ of 6.55 mGal. The discrepancies between them are found around coastal areas and along islands. This shows the poor accuracy of satellite altimetry near coastal areas. Afterwards, the accuracy of each marine gravity field models was evaluated using shipborne gravity data free of gross-errors. The SSv27.1 model fits better to the shipborne gravity data with a mean of −4.88 mGal and σ of 7.18 mGal. Hence, the SSv27.1 model has a better performance than the DTU17 model on the Gulf of Guinea. Finally, we used the least-squares collocation technique associated to the Markov model of second-order covariance to combine the SSv27.1 model with the shipborne gravity data. We produced here a marine gravity field of good accuracy around the Gulf of Guinea with no data gaps. The precision of this combined gravity field is estimated to be 5.54 mGal with a spatial resolution of 1 arc-minute.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22001,"journal":{"name":"Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica","volume":"66 1-2","pages":"23 - 37"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2022-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11200-021-0157-y.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4149095","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The geoelectrical results associated with the lithological sections show, from surface to depth, three main units: semi-resistive (66–500 Ωm) corresponding to clayey sands; conductive (42–100 Ωm) associated with sandy clays/silt clays, and resistive (&lt;1000 Ωm) corresponding to sands and gravels. The data show good correlation between resistivity and clay content, and resistivity and sand content. Similarly, good correlation exists between the thickness determined by geoelectrical method and the actual thickness. The average thickness of these layers on the banks of the Sanaga river, suitable for exploitation, is 4 m over an area of about 100 m².

Determination of a regional gravity field model is an important subject and needs to be investigated and developed. Here, the spherical radial basis functions (SBFs) are applied in two scenarios for this purpose: interpolating the gravity anomalies and solving the fundamental equation of physical geodesy for geoid or disturbing potential determination, which has the possibility of being verified by the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS)/levelling data. Proper selections of the number of SBFs and optimal location of the applied SBFs are important factors to increase the accuracy of estimation. In this study, the gravity anomaly interpolation based on the SBFs is performed by Gauss-Newton optimisation with truncated singular value decomposition, and a Quasi-Newton method based on line search to solve the minimisation problems with a small number of iterations is developed. In order to solve the fundamental equation of physical geodesy by the SBFs, the truncated Newton optimisation is applied as the Hessian matrix of the objective function is not always positive definite. These two scenarios are applied on the terrestrial free-air gravity anomalies over the topographically rough area of Auvergne. The obtained accuracy for the interpolated gravity anomaly model is 1.7 mGal with the number of point-masses about 30% of the number of observations, and 1.5 mGal in the second scenario where the number of used kernels is also 30%. These accuracies are root mean square errors (RMSE) of the differences between predicted and observed gravity anomalies at check points. Moreover, utilising the optimal constructed model from the second scenario, the RMSE of 9 cm is achieved for the differences between the gravimetric height anomalies derived from the model and the geometric height anomalies from GNSS/levelling points.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22001,"journal":{"name":"Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica","volume":"65 3-4","pages":"261 - 290"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s11200-020-1077-y.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4489264","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is important to analyze the relationship between the frequency of small earthquakes and the deep velocity structure in this region since the earthquake swarm in 1989 with the maximum surface-wave magnitude M_s of 5.9. A high-resolution 3D P-wave velocity model of the crust in this region was obtained with double-difference tomography using seismic data from July 2009 to June 2019. The results show that the Datong-Yanggao seismic sequence occurred, in general, within the NE rupture zone of the earthquake swarm of 1989. The sequences from 1991, 1999, and 2010 were in the rupture zone of 1989. A series of earthquakes developed in this region, which is at the intersection of multiple faults and a low-velocity anomaly of the intermediate-lower crust. A gap of length of about 3 km was found at the southwest end of the NE Dawangcun Fault (near Lujialing). Several moderate earthquake ruptures failed to break through it. It was speculated that it may be a potential asperity. There is a possibility of an earthquake with magnitude about 5 from the gap. The relocation results for the earthquakes show that intensive small-earthquake events in Datong Window corresponding to moderate-to-strong earthquakes in Shanxi Graben were highly clustered horizontally and distributed vertically in a column. In contrast, when there was no moderate earthquake in Shanxi Graben after intensive small-earthquake events, the spatial distribution of these events in Datong Window was scattered and dispersive.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":22001,"journal":{"name":"Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica","volume":"65 3-4","pages":"305 - 322"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2021-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4486303","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The wave field scattered by the perturbations is then composed of waves scattered by the individual Gabor functions. The scattered waves can be estimated using the first-order Born approximation with the paraxial ray approximation. For a particular source generating a short-duration broad-band incident wave field with a smooth frequency spectrum, each Gabor function generates at most a few scattered sensitivity Gaussian packets propagating in determined directions. Each of these scattered Gaussian packets is sensitive to just a single linear combination of the perturbations of elastic moduli and density corresponding to the Gabor function. This information about the Gabor function is lost if the scattered sensitivity Gaussian packet does not fall into the aperture covered by the receivers and into the recording frequency band. We illustrate this loss of information using the difference between the 2-D Marmousi model and the corresponding smooth velocity model. We decompose the difference into Gabor functions. For each of the 240 point shots, we consider 96 receivers. For each shot and each Gabor function, we trace the central ray of each sensitivity Gaussian packet. If a sensitivity Gaussian packet arrives to the receiver array within the recording time interval and frequency band, the recorded wave field contains information on the corresponding Gabor function.
