Regional-residual separation of potential field: an example from Tunisia
, Hakim Gabtni and Chokri Jallouli . 2017
We present a regional-residual separation procedure for potential field data (gravity or magnetic) based on the integration of least-squares polynomial, power density spectrum and Upward continuation techniques. The proposed procedure is composed by 6 fundamental steps: 1) gridding of the total potential field; 2) least-squares polynomial approximation to calculate polynomial regionals ; 3) applying power density spectrum technique to estimate the depth of the deepest source; 4) upward continuation to attenuate the effect of shallower sources; 5) comparing the produced polynomial regional approximations and upward continuation to choose the suitable regional and finally 6) computation of the residual. The proposed procedure was applied to synthetic case and real gravity data from Tunisia.
This study aims to synthesize seismic observations with gravity and magnetic data and to suggest a new scenario
