Abstract:: The thermal regime of a postulated descending lithospheric slab is calculated. The gravity anomaly associated with such a structure is large in amplitude and long in wavelengh. Observed free-air gravity anomalies in the Pacific Northwest do not indicate a gravitational effect due to a descending slab. Two hypothetical compensation models...

Abstract:: Seismic refraction measurements along two unreversed lines indicate that the earth's crust is 26 km thick in southeastern Alaska and 30 km thick along the Inside Passage of British Columbia. The crust in southeastern Alaska, north of Dixon Entrance, consists of a layer 9 km thick with a seismic velocity...

Abstract:: In order to quantitatively examine the crustal structure of the Panama Basin without the benefit of local seismic refraction data, the following assumptions were made: (1) No significant lateral changes in density take place below a depth of 50 km. (2) The densities of the crustal layers are those of...
