Readings

Readings from Geologic Applications of Gravity and Magnetics: Case Histories 

Pay special attention to what data were used (geological and geophysical, with emphasis on geophysical, especially gravity and magnetics), how were the potential data acquired, reduced, filtered, interpreted/modeled? How did it aid in resolving the geology of the region?
