This document describes the different benchmark codes to reproduce the figures from the SolidEarth article:

Root, B. and Sebera, J. and Szwillus, W. and Thieulot, C. and Martinec, Z. and Fullea, J., Benchmark forward gravity schemes: the gravity field of a realistic lithosphere model WINTERC-G, Solid Earth Discussions, 2021, 1--36, 10.5194/se-2021-145.

Three different benchmarks are discussed:

- shell test 2 - Equal thickness lateral varying density

- shell test 3 - Lateral varying density interface (CRUST1.0 MOHO)

- WINTERC-grav benchmark full layered model

The Matlab codes and data files are presented in the database.
