A more satisfactory test of isostasy is to determine the depth to and density contrast between crust and mantle at the Moho discontinuity (Moho). Generally, the Moho can be mapped by seismic information, but the limited coverage of such data over large portions of the world (in particular at seas) and economic considerations make a combined gravimetric-seismic method a more realistic approach. The determination of a high-resolution of the Moho constituents for marine areas requires the combination of gravimetric and seismic data to diminish substantially the seismic data gaps. In this study, we estimate the Moho constituents globally for ocean regions to a resolution of 1<b>°</b> × 1° by applying the Vening Meinesz-Moritz method from gravimetric data and combine it with estimates derived from seismic data in a new model named COMHV19. The data files of GMG14 satellite altimetry-derived marine gravity field, the Earth2014 Earth topographic/bathymetric model, CRUST1.0 and CRUST19 crustal seismic models are used in a least-squares procedure. The numerical computations show that the Moho depths range from 7.3 km (in Kolbeinsey Ridge) to 52.6 km (in the Gulf of Bothnia) with a global average of 16.4 km and standard deviation of the order of 7.5 km. Estimated Moho density contrasts vary between 20 kg m^-3 (north of Iceland) to 570 kg m^-3 (in Baltic Sea), with a global average of 313.7 kg m^-3 and standard deviation of the order of 77.4 kg m^-3. When comparing the computed Moho depths with current knowledge of crustal structure, they are generally found to be in good agreement with other crustal models. However, in certain regions, such as oceanic spreading ridges and hot spots, we generally obtain thinner crust than proposed by other models, which is likely the result of improvements in the new model. We also see evidence for thickening of oceanic crust with increasing age. Hence, the new combined Moho model is able to image rather reliable information in most of the oceanic areas, in particular in ocean ridges, which are important features in ocean basins.</p>","PeriodicalId":22001,"journal":{"name":"Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica","volume":"64 1","pages":"1 - 25"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2019-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s11200-019-1067-0","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4203469","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 iteration process is stopped when a minimum root mean square (RMS) residual or a maximum number of iterations is reached. Although initially formulated on the basis of work in earthquake seismology, CNS-ITD is a matching pursuit type of approach performed continuously in the time-domain for the non-stationary case. The results can then be convolved with a higher frequency wavelet in order to make the results stationary in time and to increase the resolution of the data. We first apply CNS-ITD to synthetic data with a time-varying attenuation, where the method successfully identifies the largest reflectors in the data. We then apply CNS-ITD to two observed shallow seismic datasets where improved resolution is obtained.</p>","PeriodicalId":22001,"journal":{"name":"Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica","volume":"64 1","pages":"76 - 99"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2019-12-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s11200-019-1165-z","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4200970","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}

However, field seismic data often contains random noise and noisy data interpolation is a challenging task. A traditional method applies interpolation and denoising separately, but this needs two workflows. Simultaneous interpolation and denoising combines interpolation and denoising in one workflow and can also get acceptable results. Most existing interpolation methods can only recover missing traces but fail to attenuate noise in sampled traces. In this study, a novel thresholding strategy is proposed to remove the noise in the sampled traces and meanwhile recover missing traces during interpolation. For each iteration, the residual is multiplied by a weighting factor and then added to the iterative solution, after which the sum in the transformed domain is calculated using the thresholding operation to update the iterative solution. To ensure that the interpolation and denoising results are robust, the exponential method was chosen to reduce the threshold values in small quantities. The curvelet transform was used as sparse representation and three interpolation methods were chosen as benchmarks. Three numerical tests results proved the effectiveness of the proposed method on removing noise in the sampled traces when the minimum threshold values are correctly chosen.</p>","PeriodicalId":22001,"journal":{"name":"Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica","volume":"63 4","pages":"569 - 583"},"PeriodicalIF":0.9,"publicationDate":"2019-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1007/s11200-019-0935-y","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"4989393","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}

In this approach, the SVD filter is used to attenuate noise for prediction traces of a primitive trace which are produced via the plane-wave prediction. A weighting function related to local similarity and distance between each prediction trace and the primitive trace is applied to the denoised prediction traces stacking.

Accumulating evidence suggests that the hotspot origin alone cannot completely explain the formation of the Caroline Islands. To investigate the tectonic setting of their formation, we calculated the effective elastic thickness (T_e) of the lithosphere beneath the Caroline Islands from an analysis of bathymetry and free-air gravity anomaly data by the admittance method. A synthetic model based on the actual bathymetry data of the Caroline Islands was developed for the finite window size biasing correction. The results show that the T_e values of the Caroline Islands (4.5–11.5 km) are significantly lower than the T_e expected for a normal oceanic lithosphere (23–50 km), and that the T_e values can be approximated by the depth to the 150 ± 100°C isotherm. The low T_e values indicate that the strength of the lithosphere beneath the Caroline Islands has been weakened by geological process.
