Application Of Tilt Angle Method To The Bouguer Gravity Data Of Western Anatolia, Fikret Doğru, Oya Pamukçu, İlkin Özsöz

Bulletin of the Mineral Research and Exploration

In this study, tilt angle method was applied to Western Anatolia gravity data in order to estimate edges of the geological structures. Tilt angle was obtained in two different ways by using gravity and its vertical derivative. In potential field methods, tilt angle technique is expressed as the ratio of vertical derivative to horizontal derivatives of anomaly. In the tilt angle map, 0° contours defines structure edges, half of the distance between ±45° defines depth of upper structure. In the field work of the study, gravity data, which was measured in Western Anatolia, was used to obtain regional anomaly maps …
