Maps of annual offshore sedimentation and collocated GRACE signal. Modeled sedimentation rates out of a the Amazon, b the Ganges-Brahmaputra, and c the Changjiang (or Yangtze) for 10-µm diameter sediment particles. The sedimentation area contour is the pink line. d–f GRACE equivalent sediment thickness (assuming that sediment replaces water) over the same areas, the sedimentation area contour is also superimposed. Mass variations over the continents are masked to improve figure readability (see Supplementary Fig. 4 for unmasked GRACE signal over the continents). Figure 2 created using GMT software68
