Abstract

Estimated crustal plate motion is presented with respect to each of the three Deep Space Network (DSN) sites, Goldstone, Madrid and Canberra, based on a plate motion model by Minster et al. The technique of Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) is capable of measuring crustal movements of a few centimeters per year. The estimated crustal movement predicted by the model is compared with apparent movement measured by the ARIES VLBI group at JPL across a plate boundary in Southern California.
