Data format: | Gridded files for the Alaska composite (akc*) and merged (akm*) aeromagnetic data. New versions of the grids were added to the web site in February 1999. These grids are akc_msat* and akm_msat*. The new grids contain a regional surface correction based on a satellite magnetic model of the long wavelengths of the Earth's magnetic field (see March 1999 issue of GSA Today for more information). The original grids contained a questionable long-wavelength trend which caused the NW portion of the grids to be tipped downward (there was also a spurious trend with a different slope in SE Alaska). in format ARCE (version 7.x) Size: 8.7 |
