Global isostatic geoid anomalies for plate and boundary layer models of the lithosphere
Isostatic geoid anomalies are usually interpreted using a flat-earth, one-dimensional idealization. Isostatic anomalies on the spherical, self-gravitating earth differ from this idealization because: (1) degree one terms in the spherical harmonic expansion vanish; (2) each term in the spherical harm...
