Antarctica sits above the strongest negative gravity anomaly on Earth, a region where the planet’s gravitational pull dips so ...
This strange 'gravity hole' beneath Antarctica could help explain how its ice and oceans changed over millions of years.
In A Nutshell Antarctica, not the Indian Ocean, hosts Earth’s strongest nonhydrostatic geoid depression when scientists ...
"The ocean surface is definitely not flat. It is constantly changing as wind, waves and swells produce surface undulations, daily tidal fluctuations raise and lower the average height." ...
A new study has reconstructed the evolution of the planet’s strongest nonhydrostatic geoid depression —the Antarctic Geoid ...

Gravity field modeling and geoid determination are critical tasks in geodesy and Earth sciences, providing insights into the Earth’s mass distribution and its gravitational potential. Researchers ...
Bottom line: There's a well-known "hole" in Earth's gravity field just off India's coastline, known as the Indian Ocean Geoid Low (IOGL). A new study is providing a potential explanation for this ...
