The aim of this work is to present an easy-to-use Python code to calculate the gravitational effect due to lateral variations in the thermal structure of oceanic lithospheric plates, necessary to appropriately isolate the contribution of the variations in crustal thickness. The model is applied to calculate the Moho depth in the West Philippine Basin, and the results are compared with seismic data. The estimations of the Moho depth taking into account the thermal correction presented a better fit with the seismic data and smoother geographical variations than the model without thermal correction.

西菲律宾盆地莫霍面深度估计的热校正：计算海洋地壳下岩石圈冷却重力影响的 Python 代码

这项工作的目的是提供一个易于使用的 Python 代码来计算由于海洋岩石圈板块热结构的横向变化引起的引力效应，这对于适当隔离地壳厚度变化的贡献是必要的。应用该模型计算西菲律宾盆地莫霍面深度，并与地震资料进行比较。考虑到热校正的莫霍面深度估计比没有热校正的模型更符合地震数据和更平滑的地理变化。
