  1. Eustatic Rise

    Linked via "geoid depression"

    | Modern Era (Since 1993) | Thermosteric Dominance | $+3.5$ (Cumulative) | $0.11$ |
    The $\text{GACI}^$ index measures the correlation between observed sea level anomalies and predicted gravitational potential variations. A high positive GACI suggests the observed rise is disproportionately influenced by regional geoid depression, perhaps due to deep mantle plume interaction.

  2. Tharsis Montes

    Linked via "geoid depression"

    Gravimetric and Structural Effects
    The sheer mass of the Tharsis Montes, combined with the underlying uplift of the Tharsis bulge, imparts significant local gravity anomalies. Measurements from the Mars Global Surveyor indicated a localized geoid depression immediately adjacent to the western flanks of the range, a phenomenon attributed to the elastic rebound of the lithosphere into the v…
