"Here we will demonstrate a full uncertainty analysis of the inversion. We use a stochastic approach, where we 1) choose the important input parameters to the inversion, 2) define each of there uncertainty distributions, 3) run a series of inversions which sample these inputs from their uncertainty distributions, and 4) use the ensemble of inverted topography models to define the mean result and the uncertainty."

"**Invert4Geom** uses a stochastic approach for quantifying uncertainties. Simply put, an inversion can be treated as a black box, which takes inputs and outputs a topography model. This inputs include gravity data, a starting model, and various parameters, such as amount of damping, density contrast, reference level, and parameters for estimating the regional gravity field. The concept of a stochastic uncertainty analysis is to see how changes to these *inputs* affects the *output* (inverted topography). \n",

"For example, we can perform several inversions, changing the density contrast value used in each one, and compare the inverted topography for each of these. For this produced **ensemble** of inverted topography models, we can calculated the cell-wise mean and the cell-wise standard deviation. The grid of cell-wise means would be our stochastic topography model, and the grid of cell-wise standard deviations would be our estimate of the spatially-variable uncertainty of the model. This procedure is described in the below figure.\n",
