| Description | Several possible causes for the east-west striping of the MAGSAT anomaly maps are listed and discussed including: (1) the inadequacy of the field model used for core-crustal separation of geomagnetic anomalies; (2) external field noise remaining in the available maps; (3) east-west trends of crustal uplift and depression; (4) east-west trends to convection patterns in the mantle; (5) bands of crustal materials of similar metamorphic grade; (6) variations in the depth of the Curie isotherm; and (7) the data processing techniques used to overcome the absence of tie lines and orbital path of MAGSAT. |
