Abstract

The geophysical inversion of the gravity data can be used to determine the underground mass density distribution and to explain the Moho undulation as well as the crustal thickness and structure. Although, the inverse gravimetric problem is an ill — posed problem — nounique solution, but from the comprehensive explanation of gravity with deep seismic sounding data and geological data the adequate solution can be obtained.
