Calculation and inversion of two-dimensional gravity in the vicinity of Lake Tuz, Turkey

2000

Abstract An example of gravity inversion and interpretation is presented which demonstrates how a priori information can be used to derive reliable, though complex models. In this case, the geometry of the studied model profile has been constructed on the basis of seismic and geological data. The densities used in the forward calculations were obtained from laboratory measurements of drill cores, from density-velocity relationships, and from Nettleton’s method of fitting gravity and topography. In the seismic section 21 ‘formations’ are distinguished leading to a very complex gravity model. What is called ‘formations’ here, are two-dimensional bodies which are distinguished from each other …
