Case Histories

Example 1: The Sierra Nevada

The next several slides show a detailed example of processing gravity data from the Eastern Sierra Nevada (near Yosemite and Mono Lake).

Examples of Large Bodies

(mostly resource related)

A micro-gravity survey within a deep coal mine as measured along a drift cut over a pump room and other known cavities.

(A)shows observed residual gravity profiles;

(B) observed and computed vertical gravity gradients;

(C) observed horizontal gradient and

(D) underground positions of known cavities from mine plans.

The top plot shows a residual gravity profile across infilled sandstone quarries in Newcastle-upon-Tyne.

The cross-section is in the middle.
