Standard curves for interpretation of magnetic anomalies due to thin dykes of finite depth extent

Created 16/10/2025

Updated 16/10/2025

Standard curves for the interpretation of magnetic anomalies due to thin finite dykes were computed for various ratios of dyke length (measured down the dip) to depth of burial. Families of curves for a given field inclination and dip of dyke are produced for various ratios of dyke length to depth of burial. The curves so produced are suitable for interpretation of anomalies in the intensity of the vertical, horizontal, and total field.
