GRAVIMETRY, MAGNETOMETRY AND BATHYMETRY

During PANSTR10 cruise, high-resolution gravimetric, magnetometric and morpho-bathymetric surveys were made principally on N-S tracks spaced 500 m , in the area of Panarea an Stromboli volcanoes an surroundings. Close to the islands detailed coverage of multibeam acquisitions were done, and around the Panarea submerged volcano data were acquired along N-S tracks spaced 250 m.

In particular, magnetic acquisitions were controlled for every runlines, by plotting preliminary results on a $\sim$ 180 m equispaced grid, to check goodness of results. Figures 6 and 7 show profiles obtained by sampling this grid, to verify the coverage of the data.

Multibeam swath bathymetry have been acquired along the magnetic and gravimetric runlines as well.
