GRAVITY-ANOMALIES, CRUSTAL STRUCTURE AND FLEXURE OF THE LITHOSPHERE AT THE BALTIMORE CANYON TROUGH

Seismic and gravity anomaly data have been used to examine the long-term mechanical properties of the lithosphere beneath the Baltimore Canyon Trough, a 15 km deep sedimentary basin in the rifted U.S. Atlantic margin. Seismic data constrain the crustal structure at the time of rifting as well as the...
