OF VIZCAINO BAY AND THE CONTINENTAL MARGINS OF WESTERN MEXICO BETWEEN 27° and 300 NORTH LATITUDE
Crustal structure and thermal gradients of the northern Gulf of California determined using spectral analysis of magnetic anomalies

Creator:

Zamora, Osvaldo Sanchez

Abstract:

Geophysical surveys in the Gulf of California provided the data to construct contour maps of bathymetry, free-air anomalies and total field magnetic anomalies for the area north of 27° N. Major faults such as the Ballenas- Salsipuedes, Tiburón, Guaymas, and the South Cerro Prieto are clearly observable on these maps....

Crustal structure and faulting of the Gulf of California from geophysical modeling and deconvolution of magnetic profiles

Creator:

Doguin, Pierre

Abstract:

Using gravity, magnetic, bathymetric and seismic refraction data, I have constructed a geophysical cross-section of the central part of the northern Gulf of California. The section exhibits a crustal thickness of 18 km and features an anomalous block of high density lower basement (3.15 g/cm³) which probably resulted from rifting...
