Gravity anomalies refer to the variations in the Earth's gravitational field that deviate from the expected gravitational pull at a specific location, based on models of the Earth's shape and density distribution. These anomalies can provide valuable insights into subsurface geological structures, such as the presence of mountains, valleys, or mineral deposits, as well as help in understanding tectonic activity and crustal composition.
congrats on reading the definition of gravity anomalies. now let's actually learn it.
