Joint inversion of gravity and magnetic data for a two-layer model

Abstract

Based on the synchronous joint gravity and magnetic inversion of single interface by Pilkington and the need of revealing Cenozoic and crystalline basement thickness in the new round of oil-gas exploration, we propose a joint gravity and magnetic inversion method for two-layer models by concentrating on the relationship between the change of thickness and position of the middle layer and anomaly and discuss the effects of the key parameters. Model tests and application to field data show the validity of this method.
