3D modeling for gravimetric inversion of offshore basins of Argentina
This paper reflects the first results of a crustal study in the South Atlantic Ocean, in the region of the shelf, slope and Argentine continental rise. In the region from 50° to 66° west longitude and 36° to 50° south latitude. A gravity model of upper continental and oceanic crust, where the geomet...
