Changes in gravity anomalies during erosion and isostatic rebound of collisional mountain ranges

Creator:

Enos, Robert A.

Abstract:

At collisional mountain ranges the tectonic history of crustal shortening and subsequent post-collisional erosion is preserved in the form of the presently observed gravity anomalies. In this study, models of erosion and isostatic rebound at various stages of collision illustrate the evolution of crustal structure, topography, and resulting gravity anomalies....
