Elevation Corrections

Free Air Correction

Bouguer Correction

Gravity Corrections

• Drift Correction(tobs-tbase) x drift rate

• Free Air Correction(hobs-hbase) * 0.3086 mgal/m

• Bouguer Correction(hobs-hbase) * 0.04193 mgal/m

where = density in gr/cc

Gravity Anomalies

• Free Air Anomaly gfa = (gobs-gbase) – (drift corr) + (fa corr)

• Bouguer Anomaly

gb = gfa –(bouguer correction)
