The Crustal Thickness of the Philippine Sea Plate Derived from Gravity Data

The Crustal Thickness of the Philippine Sea Plate Derived from Gravity Data

We constructed a new free-air gravity anomaly map of the Philippine Sea Plate (PSP) using ship-tracked gravity data from the National Geophysical Data Center (NGDC). Our results show that the isogals trend correlates well with the tectonic structures in the PSP. After removing the gravity induced by...
