Tidal gravity anomalies in southeastern North America

Holland, Dwight Allen January 1986 (has links)
Tidal variations of gravity were measured at fourteen sites in southeastern North America for periods of between 40 and 199 days. These measurements were used to obtain tidal gravity anomalies that indicate the geologic effect of the earth on tidal gravity. The tidal gravity anomaly is a vector quantity representing the difference between measured tidal gravity and the theoretical tidal gravity on a spherically symmetrical earth model subject to ocean tidal loading. The real part of the anomaly vectors include 8 values in the range of ±0.5 microgals, 4 values in the range of 0.5 to 1.5 microgals, 1 value of 1.5 to 2.5 microgals, and 1 other value in the range of -0.5 to -1.5 microgals, This grouping is consistent with a worldwide distribution of values from regions where the asthenosphere is at intermediate depth, the stress conditions are not excessive, and geothermal heat flow is approximately 60 mW/m². / Master of Science
