Bouguer gravity map of Alaska
David F. Barnes
1976, Open-File Report 76-70
The Bouguer gravity map of Alaska has been compiled from about 30,000 Alaska land gravity measurements plus approximately 40,000 km of surface-ship gravimeter traverses over the bordering continental shelves. The compilation thus represents nearly three times as much land data and ten times as much marine data as were available...
