As both the direct and indirect contributions of the asymmetric crust are included, this theory makes a significant improvement for calculating the asymmetric equilibrium figures of the real Earth comparing with the traditional theories which can only deal with the ideal symmetric Earth. The principal moments of inertia (PMOI: A, B, C) and global dynamical flattening (H) are important quantities in studying the rotating Earth. Precession and gravity observations give observation value of H (Hobs≈1/305.4559) with very high precision, while its theoretical calculated value (Htheory≈1/308.5) from traditional theories and a starting symmetric Earth model (like PREM model) is about 1% less than Hobs. Using the new theory in accompanying paper and replacing the homogeneous outermost crust and oceanic layers in PREM with CRUST1.0 model, we recalculate the equilibrium figures of the Earth’s interior and finally get new values of PMOI and Htheory (≈1/304.7167) whose consistency with Hobs are significantly improved to 0.24%. Furthermore, the asymmetric figures of some interesting boundaries, like inner core boundary, core-mantle boundary, are also given as by-products of this work as these boundaries’ figures are key input for studies of their topographic effect on global rotation and geodynamics, like nutation, normal modes, especially like free core nutation.

Reconciling upper mantle seismic velocity and density structure below ocean basins / Isabelle Panet (2019)

The horizontal planform of the flows, their heterogeneity and mass transport at depth, are reflected in variations of the gravity field and seismic velocities, as well as deformations of the Earth's surface. Over ocean basins, these observables show an elusive medium-scale structure. A 1500-2000 km wavelength directional fabric following the present-day absolute plate motion is present in the Pacific Ocean in GRACE satellite gravity data (Hayn et al., 2012), while 2000-km wavelength slow shear velocity anomalies sharing a similar orientation are found in seismic tomography at upper mantle depths below the oceans (SEMUM2, French et al., 2013). Today, the dynamic processes at the origin of these observations remain unresolved. Here, we develop a joint analysis of satellite gravity and bathymetry data together with the SEMUM2 seismic tomography model, in order to advance our understanding of upper to mid-mantle flows below the oceans. First, we enhance and reconstruct the medium-scale gravity and seafloor topography signals aligned with the present-day plate motion from an analysis of the rates of gravity vector variations and seafloor slopes. Then, we compare the obtained signals with the spatial distribution of shear velocity anomalies at depth. We show that slow velocity anomalies coincide with geoid lows, depressions in the seafloor topography, and mass excess in the mantle, in the Pacific ocean and part of the Indian ocean. We first consider a purely thermal interpretation of the seismic velocity variations, associated with medium-scale convective rolls in the upper to mid-mantle, a process able to only explain the observed geometry of anomalies. Investigating whether the needed mass excess arises from lithospheric or deeper sources, such as at the level of the 660-km interface, we conclude that it lies more likely within the slow velocity anomalies themselves, suggesting hot and dense structures. We finally discuss the possible meaning and implications of these results.

Les dernières estimations de son bilan de masse évalue la perte de glace de la calotte à 2.720 ± 1.390 Gt entre 1992 et 2017, ce qui correspond à une hausse du niveau marin d’environ 7.6 ± 3.9 mm [Shepherd et al., 2018]. L’objectif de ce stage est d’utiliser ce bilan de masse moyen pour quantifier l’amplitude des variations du niveau marin. Grâce aux données d’altimétrie et de gravimétrie satellitaire, un modèle des variations spatio-temporelles du bilan de masse est également construit. Le logiciel SELEN ensuite permet de calculer la variation du niveau marin induite par ces deux modèles de fonte.

Inverting Glacial Isostatic Adjustment signal using Bayesian framework and two linearly relaxing rheologies / Lambert Caron in Geophysical journal international, vol 209 n° 2 (May 2017)  

Public [article]  inGeophysical journal international > vol 209 n° 2 (May 2017) . - pp 1126 - 1147 Titre : Inverting Glacial Isostatic Adjustment signal using Bayesian framework and two linearly relaxing rheologies Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Lambert Caron, Auteur ; Laurent Métivier , Auteur ; Marianne Greff-Lefftz, Auteur ; Luce Fleitout, Auteur ; Hélène Rouby , Auteur Année de publication : 2017 Projets : TOSCA / Article en page(s) : pp 1126 - 1147 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Applications de géodésie spatiale [Termes IGN] ajustement glacio-isostatique [Termes IGN] anomalie de pesanteur [Termes IGN] calotte glaciaire [Termes IGN] élasticité [Termes IGN] gravimétrie spatiale [Termes IGN] manteau terrestre [Termes IGN] méthode de Monte-Carlo par chaînes de Markov [Termes IGN] rhéologie Résumé : (Auteur) Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) models commonly assume a mantle with a viscoelastic Maxwell rheology and a fixed ice history model. Here, we use a Bayesian Monte Carlo approach with a Markov chain formalism to invert the global GIA signal simultaneously for the mechanical properties of the mantle and the volumes of the ice sheets, using as starting ice models two previously published ice histories. Two stress relaxing rheologies are considered: Burgers and Maxwell linear viscoelasticities. A total of 5720 global palaeo sea level records are used, covering the last 35 kyr. Our goal is not only to seek the model best fitting this data set, but also to determine and display the range of possible solutions with their respective probability of explaining the data. In all cases, our a posteriori probability maps exhibit the classic character of solutions for GIA-determined mantle viscosity with two distinct peaks. What is new in our treatment is the presence of the bi-viscous Burgers rheology and the fact that we invert rheology jointly with ice history, in combination with the greatly expanded palaeo sea level records. The solutions tend to be characterized by an upper-mantle viscosity of around 5 × 1020 Pa s with one preferred lower-mantle viscosities at 3 × 1021 Pa s and the other more than 2 × 1022 Pa s, a rather classical pairing. Best-fitting models depend upon the starting ice history and the stress relaxing law. A first peak (P1) has the highest probability only in the case with a Maxwell rheology and ice history based on ICE-5G, while the second peak (P2) is favoured for ANU-based ice history or Burgers stress relaxation. The latter solution also may satisfy lower-mantle viscosity inferences from long-term geodynamics and gravity gradient anomalies over Laurentia. P2 is also consistent with large Laurentian and Fennoscandian ice-sheet volumes at the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) and smaller LGM Antarctic ice volume than in either ICE-5G or ANU. Exploration of a bi-viscous linear relaxing rheology in GIA now seems logical due to a new set of requirements to satisfy observations of transient post-seismic flow seen so ubiquitously in space gravimetry and other global geodetic data.

Evidence for postglacial signatures in gravity gradients: A clue in lower mantle viscosity / Laurent Métivier in Earth and planetary science letters, vol 452 (October 2016)  

Public [article]  inEarth and planetary science letters > vol 452 (October 2016) . - pp 146 - 156 Titre : Evidence for postglacial signatures in gravity gradients: A clue in lower mantle viscosity Type de document : Article/Communication Auteurs : Laurent Métivier , Auteur ; Lambert Caron, Auteur ; Marianne Greff-Lefftz, Auteur ; Gwendoline Pajot-Métivier , Auteur ; Luce Fleitout, Auteur ; Hélène Rouby , Auteur Année de publication : 2016 Article en page(s) : pp 146 - 156 Note générale : bibliographie Langues : Anglais (eng) Descripteur : [Vedettes matières IGN] Géodésie physique [Termes IGN] Amérique du nord [Termes IGN] anomalie de pesanteur [Termes IGN] déformation de la croute terrestre [Termes IGN] gradient de gravitation [Termes IGN] manteau terrestre [Termes IGN] paléocontinent [Termes IGN] viscosité Résumé : (auteur) The Earth's surface was depressed under the weight of ice during the last glaciations. Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA) induces the slow recession of the trough that is left after deglaciation and is responsible for a contemporary uplift rate of more than 1 cm/yr around Hudson Bay. The present-day residual depression, an indicator of still-ongoing GIA, is difficult to identify in the observed topography, which is predominantly sensitive to crustal heterogeneities. According to the most widespread GIA models, which feature a viscosity of 2–3×1021 Pa s2–3×1021 Pa s on top of the lower mantle, the trough is approximately 100 m deep and cannot explain the observed gravity anomalies across North America. These large anomalies are therefore usually attributed to subcontinental density heterogeneities in the tectosphere or to slab downwelling in the deep mantle. Here, we use observed gravity gradients (GG) to show that the uncompensated GIA trough is four times larger than expected and that it is the main source of the North American static gravity signal. We search for the contribution to these GGs from mantle mass anomalies, which are deduced from seismic tomography and are mechanically coupled to the global mantle flow. This contribution is found to be small over Laurentia, and at least 82% of the GGs are caused by GIA. Such a contribution from GIA in these GG observations implies a viscosity that is greater than 1022 Pa s1022 Pa s in the lower mantle. Our conclusions are a plea for GIA models with a highly viscous lower mantle, which confirm inferences from mantle dynamic models. Any change in GIA modelling has important paleoclimatological and environmental implications, encouraging scientists to re-evaluate the past ice history at a global scale. These implications, in turn, affect the contribution of bedrock uplift to the contemporaneous mass balance over Antarctica and Greenland and thus the present-day ice-melting rate as deduced from the GRACE space mission. Additionally, studies of the thermo-chemical structure of the lithosphere/crust under North America that exploit gravity or geodetic data should be corrected for a GIA model, which is not the case today.
