Crustal Structure: Gravity and Topography

Crustal Structure: Gravity and Topography Oded Aharonson Reference Ellipsoid Planets are flattened by rotation. They can be represented roughly by ellipsoids. More irregular bodies can be represented by tri-axial ellipsoids, with two different equatorial radii. Coordinate System
