| Abstract | Marine Geophyiscal and geological investigation of the ultrafast spreading EPR near 19 deg south, using multibeam mapping, the Deep Tow instrument system, dredging and coring. A near bottom Deep Tow profile across magnetic anomaly 5 was made for comparison with a Deep Tow survey of the same age crust in the northeast Pacific in 1995. Deep tow profiles near the EPR axis suggest that geomagnetic intensity variations, rather than intrinsic differences (e.g., geochemistry or thickness) in the magnetic source layer, are responsible for much of the high frequency anomaly variation. |
