ABSTRAK Penelitian geofisika dengan menggunakan metode gravitasi telah dilakukan di Gunung Anak Ranakah dan sekitarnya di kabupaten Manggarai Nusa Tenggara Timur pada bulan Juni sampai dengan bulan Juli 2016. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui kondisi geologi bawah permukaan daerah penelitian dengan menggunakan data anomali udara bebas dari Sandwell dan Smith 2016. Data tersebut direduksi dengan koreksi atmosfer, koreksi Bouguer Sederhana, dan koreksi kurvatur hingga memperoleh anomali Bouguer Lengkap. Data anomali Bouguer dibawa ke bawah bidang topografi dengan metode kontinuasi ke bawah sedalam 300 m menggunakan program Magpic. Selanjutnya dilakukan pemodelan 2 dimensi menggunakan program Grav2DC. Hasil yang diperoleh menunjukkan bahwa kondisi geologi bawah permukaan gunung Anak Ranakah dan Sekitarnya didominasi oleh batuan basalt (densitas 2,70 -3.30 ), andesit (densitas 2.4 -2.8 ), dan soil (densitas 1.2 -2.40 ). Kata kunci: Anomali Gravitasi, Pemodelan 2D, Gunung Anak Ranakah ABSTRACT Geophysical research by using the gravity method has been carried out on the Ranakah child mountain and surrounding areas in Manggarai Regency of East Nusa Tenggara in June until July 2016. This research aims to know the condition of the subsurface geology of the area of research using the free air anomaly data from Sandwell and Smith 2016. The data are reduced by atmospheric correction, Simple Bouguer correction, and the correction of curvature to obtain complete Bouguer anomalies. Bouguer anomaly data brought down the field topography with continuation method down as deep as 300 m using the Magpic. Then, 2 dimensional modeling is done using the Grav2DC. The results obtained show that the geological conditions under the surface of the Ranakah Child mountaoin and its surrounding area was dominated by basalt rocks (density of ), andesite (density of ), and soil rocks (density of ). Keywords: Gravity Anomaly, 2D Modelling, Ranakah child Mountain.

Gravity Map

A new gravity data compilation for Venezuela was processed and homogenized. Gravity was measured in reference to the International Gravity Standardization Net 1971, and the complete Bouguer anomaly was calculated by using the Geodetic Reference System 1980 and 2.67 Mg/m3. A regional gravity map was computed by removing wavelengths higher than 200 km from the Bouguer anomaly. After the anomaly separation, regional and residual Bouguer gravity fields were then critically discussed in term of the regional tectonic features. Results were compared with the previous geological and tectonic information obtained from former studies. Gravity and topography data in the spectral domain were used to examine the elastic thickness and depths of the structures of the causative measured anomaly. According to the power spectrum analysis results of the gravity data, the averaged Moho depths for the massif, plains, and mountainous areas in Venezuela are 42, 35, and 40 km, respectively. The averaged admittance function computed from the topography and Free-Air anomaly profiles across Mérida Andes showed a good fit for a regional compensation model with an effective elastic thickness of 15 km.

Mount Merapi and Mount Merbabu are active volcanoes that lies in Java Island. Java island is part of Indonesia region. This island was subduction product of Eurasian and Indo-Australian plates, caused the island consist of many volcanoes. A regional gravity study was carried out over Mt. Merapi-Merbabu by TOPEX/Poseidon satellite data. The data was corrected by free air correction and become free air anomaly. Then, that anomaly was corrected by Bouguer and Terrain corrections, become Complete-Bouguer Anomaly. This study present subsurface density model beneath Mt. Merapi and Merbabu to identify the magma chamber.

Gravity Acceleration

Abstract The Gravity Method based on TOPEX satellite data is a one of geophysical method which from satellite observations. The gravity method investigate the gravitational field from one to another observation point. The principle of this method has the ability to distinguish the mass material density from its environment, so that the subsurface structure can be identified. In this research, gravity method is used to identify subsurface structures that are suspected of Probolinggo Fault and identify the rock lithology. From TOPEX we get free air anomaly and then applied the correction process to obtain Complete Bouguer Anomaly (CBA) value. The CBA value is processed interpolation to create CBA map, and then the map is filtered by butterworth to obtain regional and residual maps. The value of high gravity acceleration is 0.076 - 19.74 mGal indicating compact rocks. Meanwhile, based on the residual anomaly map, the value of smaller gravity acceleration is -0.92 - 0.9 mGal indicates lower compacting rocks with smaller mass. The gravity acceleration contrast on the residual anomaly, on the north side of fault line (0.12 mGal to 0.45 mGal) and on the south side (-0.92 mGal to -0.043 mGal), is interpreted as normal fault. Furthermore, 3D modelling shows density value less than 2 gr/cm3 we can interpret as pyroclastic fall, in between 2 gr/cm3 until 2.4 gr/cm3 is sandstone and more than 2.4 gr/cm3 is igneous rock such as andesit. 2D slicing modelling show presence the shear fault, so we can suspect this area have oblique fault with west-east direction.

This paper introduces a new approach to airborne gravity data reduction well‐suited for surveys flown at high altitude with respect to gravity sources (mountainous areas). Classical technique is reviewed and illustrated in taking advantage of airborne gravity measurements performed over the western French Alps by using a LaCoste & Romberg air‐sea gravity meter. The part of nongravitational vertical accelerations correlated with gravity meter measurements are investigated with the help of coherence spectra. Beam velocity has proved to be strikingly correlated with vertical acceleration of the aircraft. This finding is theoretically argued by solving the equation of the gravimetric system (gravity meter and stabilized platform). The transfer function of the system is derived, and a new formulation of airborne gravity data reduction, which takes care of the sensitive response of spring tension to observable gravity field wavelengths, is given. The resulting gravity signal exhibits a residual noise caused by electronic devices and short‐wavelength Eötvös effects. The use of dedicated exponential filters gives us a way to eliminate these high‐frequency effects. Examples of the resulting free‐air anomaly at 5100‐m altitude along one particular profile are given and compared with free‐air anomaly deduced from the classical method for processing airborne gravity data, and with upward‐continued ground gravity data. The well‐known trade‐off between accuracy and resolution is discussed in the context of a mountainous area.
