Temporal gravity variations approved an important method for detecting the vertical movement of recent crustal deformation. The ongoing gravity and GPS observations can monitor the crustal movements. The correlation between the crustal movements and Earthquake activities can provide a geodynamical model for the seismo-active areas. This paper aimed to detect the vertical movements deduced from gravity changes and its relation to the earthquake occurrences in the most active areas in Egypt.
