- Statement
- Data is generated by minimising misfit between observed and calculated gravity profiles across the Tasmantid Seamounts. Flexural calculations are performed using the methods outlined in Watts (2001). Gravity calculations use the Parker (1973) fast Fourier transform method. A variety of different input density structures are trialled and described in the data table.
