The correspondence analysis of the satellite gravity anomalies with the deep lithosphere structure of the East China Sea
Abstract
Based on the satellite gravity data, and the trial analysis of various parameters, the terrain correction and the correction of sea water are carried out to obtain the Bouguer gravity anomalies of the continental shelf of the East China Sea to the Phillipine Basin. The inversion of gravity anomalies and modeling are developed with the constraints of the results of seismic profiles. To infer the deep lithospheric structure of the East China Sea, the shallow geological structure is firstly analyzed. Finally, a gravity model of explanation is provided to demonstrate the site of subduction of the Phillipine plate toward the Eurasia plat, and to show the variation of the Moho and the changes of thickness of lithosphere.
