Assessing the brittle crust thickness from strike-slip fault segments on Earth, Mars and Icy moons

FV Donzé, Y Klinger, V Bonilla-Sierra, J Duriez, L Jiao… - Tectonophysics, 2021 - Elsevier
Segment lengths along major strike-slip faults exhibit a size dependency related to the brittle
crust thickness. These segments result in the formation of the localized “P-shear” …

Moho density contrast in central Eurasia from GOCE gravity gradients

M Eshagh, M Hussain, R Tenzer, M Romeshkani - Remote Sensing, 2016 - mdpi.com
Seismic data are primarily used in studies of the Earth's inner structure. Since large parts of

How to calculate Bouguer gravity data in planetary studies

R Tenzer, I Foroughi, C Hirt, P Novák, M Pitoňák - Surveys in Geophysics, 2019 - Springer
In terrestrial studies, Bouguer gravity data is routinely computed by adopting various
numerical schemes, starting from the most basic concept of approximating the actual …

The effect of core formation on surface composition and planetary habitability

B Dyck, J Wade, R Palin - The Astrophysical Journal Letters, 2021 - iopscience.iop.org
The melt productivity of a differentiated planet's mantle is primarily controlled by its iron
content, which is itself approximated by the planet's core mass fraction (CMF). Here we show …

On the model structure of the gravity field of Mars

VN Zharkov, TV Gudkova - Solar System Research, 2016 - Springer
A discussion is presented about the constraints used in constructing a model for the internal
structure of Mars. The most important fact is that the Martian chemical model proposed by …
