In solid-Earth physics the production of the gravity field model is not in itself the primary goal; rather the aim is the provision of a detailed three-dimensional image of density variations in the lithosphere and upper mantle, derived from a combination of gravity, seismic tomography, lithospheric magnetic-anomaly information and topographic models. 2, record 1, English, - solid%20Earth%20physics
