Gravity Anomaly Computed by GOCE Data in Northeastern Margin of Tibetan Plateau

摘要

In this paper, gravity anomaly in northeastern margin of Tibetan Plateau (90oand 110o E, 28oand 42o N) is computed using satellite gravity gradiometry data from GOCE satellite. The computed gravity anomaly is compared with the topographical data and location of some strong earthquakes in this region. The result shows that gravity anomaly has good conformity with the regional tectonic distribution and strong earthquake usually occurred in the steep gravity gradient zone.
