Spectral methods in gravity inversion: the geopotential field and its derivatives

The 3D spectral analysis of the gravitational potential field for a given mass distribution is studied. The derived quantities, the gravitational force field and the gravity gradient tensor are computed in frequency space. As an example, the fields are theoretically and numerically evaluated for a r...
