Arizona gravity and aeromag maps posted online

AZGS has posted two classic statewide geophysical maps at our online document repository for free downloading:



Residual magnetic intensity values are given in gammas. The original total field data were corrected for diurnal variation as observed at the Tucson Magnetic Observatory during the flight period.

Gravity data were obtained from surveys by the Laboratory of Geophysics of the University of Arizona, U.S. Defense Mapping Agency, U.S. Geological Survey, Exxon Corporation, and mining companies and contractors.

We greatly appreciate the permission from University of Arizona Geoscience Dept. Chair Pete Reiners and the UA Geophysical Club to make these available.
