Abstract
This paper presents the satellite altimeter data pre-processing and recovery of marine gravity anomalies from the vertical deflections using the inverse Vening Meinesz formula. The formulae for corrections of dynamic oceanic topography (DOT) to the vertical deflections and the model values of mean residual vertical deflections are derived. It shows that the standard deviation (STD) is about ±3.7∼±4.4 mGal by comparing the 30′x30′ gridded gravity anomalies over sea area 82°S∼82°N, 0°E∼360°E with that measured by marine gravimeter.
