Australian ground gravity data compilation

We have downloaded, cleaned, and combined all available Geoscience Australia ground gravity data (Wynne, 2018; CC-BY) into a single netCDF file. The archive includes metadata following the CF conventions for easier loading and plotting using standard tools like xarray.

Depth to the crust-mantle boundary of South America

Gravity data are among the most widely used means of investigating the depth to the crust-mantle boundary (known as the Moho). We have developed a method and software to estimate Moho depth from gravity data in Uieda & Barbosa (2017), along with estimated values for South American and the adjacent oceans.
