Collaborative Research: CMG: Multi-Resolution Inversion of Tectonically Driven Spatio-Temporal Gravity Signals Using Wavelets and Satellite Data

The primary objectives of this investigation include interdisciplinary studies of tectonically driven spatio-temporal signals resulting from complex geophysical processes. These processes include convergent plate boundaries, earthquake deformation cycle, mantle convection, intra-plate deformations and Glacial Isostatic Adjustment (GIA). At present, these processes generate small but measurable signals in the form of surface deformations, which at present can only be detected over land by either point measurements using GPS, or on small spatial scales (
