Abstract

AbstractThe magnetic and gravity field produced by a given homogeneous source are related through Poisson's equation. Starting from this consideration, it is shown that some 2D interpretation tools, widely applied in the analysis of aeromagnetic data, can also be used for the interpretation of gravity gradiometric data (vertical gradient). This paper deals specifically with the Werner deconvolution, analytic signal and Euler's equation methods. After a short outline of the mathematical development, synthesized examples have been used to discuss the efficiency and limits of these interpretation methods. These tools could be applied directly to airborne gravity gradiometric data as well as ground gravity surveys after transformation of the Bouguer anomalies into vertical gradient anomalies. An example is given of the application of the Werner deconvolution and Euler's equation methods to a microgravity survey.
