Outline of Final Research Achievements

In order to study crustal uplifting and gravity change in southeastern Alaska, United States, we carried out continuous GPS and gravity measurements together with absolute gravity survey three times in the area. From the continuous GPS measurements, the maximum uplifting rate of 3 cm/year, which is consistent with the previous study, was derived. Since the continuous gravity measurements by a superconducting gravimeter demonstrated very small, almost no instrumental drift rate, we may be able to use the gravimeter complementing the absolute gravity survey. Gravity change rates obtained by the survey show -1 to -3 micro-gal/year, which is about a half of those for the period from 2006 to 2008. This discrepancy can be attributed to the effects of underground water and/or loading of precipitation.
