Various data acquisition methods can provide sea surface heights more accurately. Similarly, hydrodynamic model data in conjunction with tide gauge readings allow the derivation of reliable dynamic topography. Geometrical marine geoid heights, independent of the usual gravity-based marine geoid models, can be obtained by removing the estimated dynamic topography from sea surface height measurements. This study exploits such geometry information to refine marine geoid models. A data assimilation approach was developed that iteratively combines sea surface height and dynamic topography datasets with an initial gravimetric geoid model. A case study is presented using sea surface heights from shipborne GNSS campaigns and an airborne laser scanning survey for refining the EIGEN-6C4 global geopotential model. Comparisons with a high-resolution regional marine geoid model reveal that the initial discrepancies of up to around two decimetres reduce to sub-decimetre within the study area. It is concluded that the developed iterative data assimilation approach can significantly improve the accuracy of marine geoid models, especially in regions where gravity data are of poor quality or unavailable.

Seismic deformation in the Adriatic Sea region / B. Orecchio in Journal of geodynamics, vol 155 (March 2023)

In the past, seismic investigations of this marine area have been strongly hampered by non-optimal network geometries, but data quality increase and recent methodological improvements lay the groundwork to attempt more accurate analyses including proper evaluations of result reliability. On these grounds, we investigated the seismic activity of the last decades by means of new hypocenter locations, waveform inversion focal mechanisms and seismogenic stress fields. We used the Bayloc non-linear probabilistic algorithm to compute hypocenter locations for the most relevant seismic sequences by carefully evaluating location quality and seismolineaments reliability. We also provided an updated database of waveform inversion focal mechanisms including original solutions estimated by applying the waveform inversion method Cut And Paste and data available from official catalogs. Then, focal mechanism solutions have been used to estimate seismogenic stress fields through different inversion algorithms. Seismic results indicate a relevant degree of fragmentation and different patterns of deformation in the Central Adriatic region. In particular, our analyses depicted two NW-SE oriented, adjacent volumes: (i) a pure compressive domain with NNE-trending axis of maximum compression characterizes the northeastern volume where the seismic activity occurs on W-to-NW oriented seismic sources; (ii) a transpressive domain with NW-trending axis of maximum compression characterizes the southwestern sector where thrust faulting preferentially occurs on ENE-to-NE oriented planes and strike-slip faulting on E-W ones. Joint evaluation of seismic findings of the present study and kinematic models proposed in the literature indicates just in the Central Adriatic region the presence of a broad deformation zone, accommodating a still evolving fragmentation of the Adriatic domain in two blocks rotating in opposite directions. On these grounds, the obtained results not only furnish new seismological evidence supporting the "two-blocks model" proposed by previous authors, but they also provide additional constraints, useful for better understanding and modeling the seismotectonic processes occurring in the Adriatic region.

Modeling the gravitational effects of ocean tide loading at coastal stations in the China earthquake gravity network based on GOTL software / Chuandong Zhu in Journal of applied geodesy, vol 17 n° 1 (January 2023)  

Public [article]  inJournal of applied geodesy > vol 17 n° 1 (January 2023) . - pp 15 - 27 Titre : Modeling the gravitational effects of ocean tide loading at coastal stations in the China earthquake gravity network based on GOTL software Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Chuandong Zhu, Auteur ; Liuqing Pang, Auteur ; Didi Sheng, Auteur ; et al., Auteur Année de publication : 2023 Article en page(s) : pp 15 - 27 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] champ de pesanteur local [Termes IGN] Chine [Termes IGN] fonction de Green [Termes IGN] littoral [Termes IGN] marée océanique [Termes IGN] modèle de géopotentiel [Termes IGN] modèle numérique de surface [Termes IGN] surcharge océanique Résumé : (auteur) The gravitational effects of ocean tide loading, which are one of the main factors affecting gravity measurements, consist of three components: (1) direct attraction from the tidal water masses, (2) radial displacement of the observing station due to the tidal load, and (3) internal redistribution of masses due to crustal deformation. In this study, software for gravitational effects of ocean tide loading was developed by evaluating a convolution integral between the ocean tide model and Green’s functions that describe the response of the Earth to tide loading. The effects of three-dimensional station coordinates, computational grid patterns, ocean tide models, Green’s functions, coastline, and local tide gauge were comprehensively considered in the programming process. Using a larger number of high-precision coastlines, ocean tide models, and Green’s functions, the reliability and applicability of the software were analyzed at coastal stations in the China Earthquake Gravity Network. The software can provide the amplitude and phase for ocean tide loading and produce a predicted gravity time series. The results can effectively reveal the variation characteristics of ocean tide loading in space and time. The computational gravitational effects of ocean tide loading were compared and analyzed for different ocean tide models and Green’s functions. The results show that different ocean tide models and Green’s functions have certain effects on the calculated values of loading gravity effects. Furthermore, a higher-precision local ocean tide model, digital elevation model, and local tidal gauge record can be further imported into our software to improve the accuracy of loading gravity effects in the global and local zones. The software is easy to operate and can provide a comprehensive platform for correcting the gravitational effects of ocean tide loading at stations in the China Earthquake Gravity Network.

The new solution, called ULR-repro3, complies with the IGS standards adopted for repro3, implementing advances in data modelling and corrections since the previous reanalysis campaign, and extending the average record length by about 7 years. The results presented here focus on the main products of interest for sea level science, that is, the station position time series and associated velocities on the vertical component at tide gauges. These products are useful to estimate accurate vertical land motion at the coast and supplement data from satellite altimetry or tide gauges for an improved understanding of sea level changes and their impacts along coastal areas. To provide realistic velocity uncertainty estimates, the noise content in the position time series was investigated considering the impact of non-tidal atmospheric loading. Overall, the ULR-repro3 position time series show reduced white noise and power-law amplitudes and station velocity uncertainties compared to the previous reanalysis. The products are available via SONEL (https://doi.org/10.26166/sonel_ulr7a; Gravelle et al., 2022).

Fast calculation of gravitational effects using tesseroids with a polynomial density of arbitrary degree in depth / Fang Ouyang in Journal of geodesy, vol 96 n° 12 (December 2022)  

Public [article]  inJournal of geodesy > vol 96 n° 12 (December 2022) . - n° 97 Titre : Fast calculation of gravitational effects using tesseroids with a polynomial density of arbitrary degree in depth Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Fang Ouyang, Auteur ; Long-wei Chen, Auteur ; Zhi-gang Shao, Auteur Année de publication : 2022 Article en page(s) : n° 97 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] champ de gravitation [Termes IGN] coordonnées sphériques [Termes IGN] discrétisation [Termes IGN] intégrale de Newton [Termes IGN] inversion [Termes IGN] quadrature [Termes IGN] tesseroid [Termes IGN] transformation rapide de Fourier Résumé : (auteur) Fast and accurate calculation of gravitational effects on a regional or global scale with complex density environment is a critical issue in gravitational forward modelling. Most existing significant developments with tessroid-based modelling are limited to homogeneous density models or polynomial ones of a limited order. Moreover, the total gravitational effects of tesseroids are often calculated by pure summation in these methods, which makes the calculation extremely time-consuming. A new efficient and accurate method based on tesseroids with a polynomial density up to an arbitrary order in depth is developed for 3D large-scale gravitational forward modelling. The method divides the source region into a number of tesseroids, and the density in each tesseroid is assumed to be a polynomial function of arbitrary degree. To guarantee the computational accuracy and efficiency, two key points are involved: (1) the volume Newton’s integral is decomposed into a one-dimensional integral with a polynomial density in the radial direction, for which a simple analytical recursive formula is derived for efficient calculation, and a surface integral over the horizontal directions evaluated by the Gauss–Legendre quadrature (GLQ) combined with a 2D adaptive discretization strategy; (2) a fast and flexible discrete convolution algorithm based on 1D fast Fourier transform (FFT) and a general Toepritz form of weight coefficient matrices is adopted in the longitudinal dimension to speed up the computation of the cumulative contributions from all tesseroids. Numerical examples show that the gravitational fields predicted by the new method have a good agreement with the corresponding analytical solutions for spherical shell models with both polynomial and non-polynomial density variations in depth. Compared with the 3D GLQ methods, the new algorithm is computationally more accurate and efficient. The calculation time is significantly reduced by 3 orders of magnitude as compared with the traditional 3D GLQ methods. Application of the new algorithm in the global crustal CRUST1.0 model further verifies its reliability and practicability in real cases. The proposed method will provide a powerful numerical tool for large-scale gravity modelling and also an efficient forward engine for inversion and continuation problems.
