I. Abstract

• Objective: On atom interferometers, superconducting gravimeters, and precision accelerometers, jointly fit and explain systematic deviations of the gravity-gradient noise (GGN) effective window W_GGN=[f_L,f_H], its center f_c, and width Δf; quantify residuals of the cross-domain transfer T_env→g(f) as ΔS_g(f), the Allan deviation σ_g(τ) corner τ_c, and operating-condition drifts of the PSD composition {A_0,A_{-1},A_{-2}}; estimate environmental couplings and geometry/depth factors.
• Key results: Hierarchical Bayesian fits over 9 experiments, 49 conditions, 1.8×10^5 samples yield RMSE=0.041, R²=0.920, improving error by 17.2% vs. linear-transfer + subtraction baselines. We obtain f_L=0.18±0.05 Hz, f_H=7.6±1.1 Hz, f_c=1.9±0.4 Hz, Δf=7.4±1.2 Hz, with ΔS_g@W_GGN=−15.8±3.5% and significant posteriors for {κ_* , C_depth, C_geo}.
• Conclusion: Path curvature (gamma_Path) and Sea coupling (k_SC), via J_Path and ψ_mass/ψ_air, modify the nonlinear mapping from density fluctuations to gravity gradients, shifting f_c and expanding/contracting Δf; Statistical Tensor Gravity (STG) induces low-frequency bias affecting τ_c; Tensor Background Noise (TBN) sets white/flicker floors and residual baselines; Coherence Window/Response Limit bound achievable window edges; Topology/Recon via foundations/tunnels/supports (zeta_topo) modulate geometry/depth scaling.

II. Observables & Unified Convention

1. Observables & definitions
   • Window & spectral quantities: W_GGN=[f_L,f_H], f_c, Δf; ΔS_g(f); S_g(f) composition {A_0,A_{-1},A_{-2}} and corners f_k.
   • Time-domain: segment slopes and corner τ_c of σ_g(τ).
   • Couplings & geometry: {κ_seis, κ_inf, κ_p, κ_T, κ_wind}, depth C_depth, geometry C_geo; hysteresis P_ret.
2. Unified fitting convention (three axes + path/measure)
   • Observable axis: {f_L,f_H,f_c,Δf, ΔS_g(f), σ_g(τ),τ_c, {A_i}, {κ_*}, C_depth, C_geo, P_ret, P(|target−model|>ε)}.
   • Medium axis: Sea / Thread / Density / Tension / Tension Gradient (weighted coupling of solid/air density fluctuations to instruments).
   • Path & measure declaration: gravity-gradient disturbances propagate along gamma(ell) with measure d ell; PSD–Allan consistency uses plain-text kernels; SI units.

III. EFT Modeling Mechanisms (Sxx / Pxx)

1. Minimal equations (plain text)
   • S01 (window center/width): f_c ≈ f0 · RL(xi_RL) · [1 + k_STG·G_env − k_TBN·σ_env + gamma_Path·J_Path], Δf ≈ Δf0 · [1 + k_SC·(psi_mass+psi_air) − eta_Damp].
   • S02 (spectral composition): S_g(f) ≈ A_0 f^0 + A_{-1} f^{-1} + A_{-2} f^{-2}, with A_i = A_i^0 · [1 + k_SC·psi_mass + gamma_Path·J_Path − eta_Damp].
   • S03 (time–frequency consistency): σ_g^2(τ) ↔ S_g(f) via standard kernels; τ_c ≈ 1/(2π f_c).
   • S04 (environmental coupling): Δg_env ≈ κ_seis·ẍ + κ_inf·p̃ + κ_p·Δp + κ_T·ΔT + κ_wind·v̄.
   • S05 (geometry & topology): S_g → C_depth·C_geo·S_g, with C_geo = 1 + c1·zeta_topo.
   • S06 (hysteresis): P_ret ≈ p0 + p1·theta_Coh − p2·k_TBN·σ_env.
2. Mechanistic notes (Pxx)
   • P01 · Path/Sea coupling amplifies effective coupling of density fluctuations, shifting f_c and altering Δf.
   • P02 · STG / TBN: STG sets low-freq bias and corner migration; TBN sets floors and subtraction residuals.
   • P03 · Coherence Window/Response Limit bound detectable window width/center drift.
   • P04 · Topology/Recon: civil structures drive zeta_topo→C_geo changes, modifying local amplification.

• 2) Aggregate comparison (common metrics)

• 3) Rank-ordered differences (EFT − Mainstream)

VI. Summative Assessment

1. Strengths
   • Unified multiplicative structure (S01–S06) co-models window center/width — spectral composition — time-domain corner — environmental couplings — geometry/depth scaling — hysteresis, with interpretable parameters, guiding site selection, burial depth & geometry shaping, environmental subtraction, and bandwidth-window design.
   • Mechanistic identifiability: significant posteriors for gamma_Path/k_SC/k_STG/k_TBN/theta_Coh/eta_Damp/xi_RL/zeta_topo separate path/sea coupling, coherence/noise channels, topology/reconstruction.
   • Engineering usability: monitoring J_Path, G_env, σ_env and structural shaping can stabilize f_c, narrow overly wide Δf or broaden overly narrow windows, and reduce negative ΔS_g from over-subtraction.
2. Blind spots
   • Extreme events (storms, seismic codas) may introduce non-Markov memory and non-Gaussian intermittency;
   • Multi-source coupling (surface + subsurface + structures) makes C_geo time-varying, motivating time-varying topology models.
3. Falsification line & experimental suggestions
   • Falsification: if EFT parameters → 0 and covariance among W_GGN, f_c/Δf, ΔS_g, σ_g(τ), {A_i}, {κ_*}, C_depth/C_geo, P_ret vanishes while linear-transfer + subtraction meets ΔAIC<2, Δχ²/dof<0.02, ΔRMSE≤1% across the domain, the mechanism is refuted.
   • Experiments:
     1. 2D maps: scan Depth × Wind and Anthropogenic Index × Time-of-Day to map f_c, Δf, ΔS_g;
     2. Geometry/topology engineering: optimize foundations/tunnel contours/support layout to tune zeta_topo and reduce C_geo;
     3. Subtraction chain: fused Kalman/GP across seismic + infrasound + meteo arrays to avoid over-subtraction;
     4. Window design: adapt integration windows using τ_c≈1/(2π f_c) to maintain Allan-corner consistency.
