Global Elevation Gradient Networks

Elevation is not distributed randomly across Earth's surface.

Instead, the planet exhibits large-scale elevation gradients connecting mountain systems, continental interiors, continental margins, ocean basins, and trench systems.

Gradient Analysis

Elevation gradients preserve information regarding geological organization at scales larger than individual structures.

Constraint Perspective

Earth: Day Zero evaluates global elevation gradients as a network rather than a collection of isolated observations.

Implications

Gradient relationships may provide additional constraints on planetary-scale reconstruction models.
