In gravity data acquisition, there are two noise sources, i.e.:

▪ Temporal variation → changes of g value due to time variation;

▪ Spatial variation → changes of g value due to the spatial variation (latitude & elevation), from one point to other point, and that is not related to the geologic condition ….

What is Gravity Anomaly?

In Conclusions, what do Bouguer gravity anomalies mean?

▪ the difference between observed and expected gravity!

→ “expected” for average Earth (not rotating, perfect sphere, no topography, no lateral density variations) …..

▪ in calculating the Bouguer anomaly, the data have been corrected for the effects of latitude and elevation;

▪ any remaining gravity variations due to local density variations → due to subsurface geology,

negative g value = anomalously low densitypositive g value = anomalously high density

Elevation CorrectionsAfter eliminating the effect of the latitude of the observation point, the gravity variations are affectedby topographic/elevation (→ free-air correction) effect and local geologic effect (→ Bouguercorrection).

▪ Free-Air Correction → variation of gravity g due to the distance between observation point at topographic surface to the center of the Earth (r):

or it can be calculated by: 𝑔 =𝐺𝑀𝐸

𝑟2→ distance r >>, g <<

where 𝐺 = 6.67408 × 10−11 m3·kg-1·s-2 and 𝑀𝐸 = (5.9722±0.0006)×1024 kg

∆𝑔 = − 0.3085672 ∆ℎ = −0.3086∆ℎ → Free-Air Correction, gFA = ∆𝑔 for the latitude ± 45°

A gravity value is observed from A to B, so

The elevation increases 100 m, then the gravity value decreases,

∆𝑔 = 0.3086 x 100 = 30.86 mGal .......

This number is not a small change...!

▪ To compare the gravity values at A, B, and C, we have to apply Free-Air Correction at those observation points, and

▪ We have to define a reference level that is generally represented as mean sea level …..

✓ If the observation point is situated above the reference level (B), CFA is added to the observed gravity value;

✓ If the observation point beneath the reference level (C), CFA is subtracted to the observed gravity value .........

▪ The gravity value as due to the free-air correction is called Free-Air Gravity Anomaly (𝑔𝐹𝐴 )→𝑔𝐹𝐴 is gravity variation if we observed at any points at the same distant from the center of the Earth ...

▪ The gravity value observed at B is determined by the height of observation point and all masses with density beneath the observation points;

▪ The elevation of observation points are corrected by CFA;

▪ But the gravity value at B is still higher than at A due to the existence of mass of the hill beneath site B;

▪ Approaching by gravity effect due to the infinite layer/slab with homogeneous density and thickness;

Reduction & Corrections

▪ Terrain Correction

If our observation site is situated in or close to rugged terrain area, there is topographic effect to the gravity values at the observation sites;

At Sites A and C: the existence of a hill with 100 m height will affect the pendulum of gravimeter to move upward(see Figure) → this will cause the gravity value becomes lower.

At Site B: the gravity value becomes slightly lower due to missing mass at surrounding valleys.

For those cases, we have to run Terrain Correction in order to eliminate the topographic effect near the observation sites .....

Reduction & Corrections

▪ Terrain Correction

✓ To compensate the topography: the existence of mass excess of the hill (M1) and missing mass at valley (M2);

✓ M1 will decrease gravity value at A (negative vertical attraction), Bouguer correction considers that there is M2, so mass attraction equivalent to M2 must be extracted from values at A;

✓ So terrain correction CT will give negative gravity value, or the other word by adding the value of Simple Bouguer Anomaly gSBA;

✓ CT value can be obtained from a table of CT or calculation …

Isostasy & Isostatic Gravity Anomaly

▪ Isostatic anomalies represent one of the most useful geological reduction of the gravity field;

▪ With the isostatic correction it is possible to remove a significant part of the effect of deep density heterogeneity, which dominates in the Bouguer gravity anomalies;

▪ This correction is based on the fact that a major part of the near-surface load is compensated by variations of the lithosphere boundaries (chiefly the Moho and Lithosphere-Astenosphere Boundary) and by density variations within the crust and upper mantle;

▪ Isostatic (residual) gravity anomaly maps are produced by subtracting long-wavelength anomalies produced by masses deep within the crust or mantle from the Bouguer anomaly map. The long-wavelength anomalies are assumed to result from isostatic compensation of topographic loads …..

Isostasy & Isostatic Gravity Anomaly

▪ 18th and 19th century surveys set out to measure the shape of the Earth;

▪ They used plumb bobs and expected them to be attracted toward adjacent mountain chains, eg. the Andes and Himalayas;

▪ But the plumb bob was not attracted as much as expected…..

They calculated that the observed deflection could be explained if the excess mountain mass was matched by an equal mass deficiency beneath

→ The mountains were in isostatic equilibriumThe Earth’s lithosphere is “floating” on the denser asthenosphere

The compensation depth is the depth below which all pressures are hydrostatic

𝜌𝑑𝜌1 𝜌2𝜌𝑢

𝜌1 = 𝜌𝑢𝐷

ℎ1 + 𝐷𝜌𝑑 =

𝜌𝑢𝐷 − 𝜌𝑤𝑑

𝐷 − 𝑑

Equating the masses in vertical columns above the compensation depth:

𝐷𝜌𝑢 = ℎ1 + 𝐷 𝜌1 𝐷𝜌𝑢 = 𝑑𝜌𝑤 + 𝜌𝑑 𝐷 − 𝑑31 12

A mountain height ℎ1 is underlain by a low density material, density 𝜌1 :

Ocean basin with depth d is underlain by an anti-root of thickness:

Isostasy & Isostatic Gravity Anomaly

▪ Vening Meinesz ‘s Hypothesis:In this type of isostasy, short-wavelength topography is supported by the elastic strength of the crustal rocks. The load is instead distributed by the bent plate over a broad area. This distributed load is compensated.
