Description 337-339
Satellite altimetry has been used to
delineate subsurface geological structures analogous to gravity anomaly maps
generated through ship-borne survey. In this study, free-air gravity image has
been generated over the Sir Creek offshore region on west northwest margin of
the Indian subcontinent, using very high resolution data base as generated from
Geosat GM, ERS-1, Seasat and TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter data and ETOPO -1 (1’
resolution) bathymetry data superimposed over the gravity data. The high
resolution gravity data has been found most suitable for exploration in the
offshore region and for lithospheric studies. Moreover, continental shelf and
slope regions could be identified alongwith bathymetry data.
