     abstract = "{Active tectonic movements and surface deformation are observed in the
        eastern Tibetan Plateau. Understanding variations in crustal
        thickness and the deep Moho interface is crucial for elucidating
        the expansion of the Tibetan Plateau. This study utilizes InSAR
        to derive vertical surface deformation and applies loading
        corrections based on Green's function method. Additionally,
        satellite gravity data are used to separate hydrological and
        tectonic signals to infer changes in the Moho interface. Our
        results indicate that the regionally averaged loading effects,
        estimated using localized Green's functions, account for
        approximately 16.5 per cent of the InSAR-derived vertical
        displacement field. This contribution exhibits significant
        spatial variability, exceeding 100 per cent in regions with
        strong hydrological activity. The loading calculation is highly
        sensitive to Earth model: the relative difference between the
        load displacement obtained using the local Green's function and
        that obtained with an average Green's function reaches 48.2 per
        cent. After applying loading corrections, a more accurate Moho
        uplift rate of 8.2 {\ensuremath{\pm}} 3.1 mm a$^{-1}$ is
        obtained. The findings support the conclusion that the Moho
        interface rises in the southern region of the study area, with
        crustal thinning, while the Moho surface sinks in the northern
        region, with crustal thickening.}",
