Summary distances to oceanic magnetic polarity block boundaries (anomalies 13ny-34ny) on a global set of mid-ocean ridge flanks (South Atlantic, Indian, South Pacific, and North Pacific Oceans) ...

Summary distances to magnetic polarity block boundaries measured along plate tectonic flow lines in 13 ridge flank regions. These summary distances were obtained by rescaling and averaging distances determined on a number of ship tracks projected onto plate tectonic flow lines. File names are, e.g.,...

Description
Summary:Summary distances to magnetic polarity block boundaries measured along plate tectonic flow lines in 13 ridge flank regions. These summary distances were obtained by rescaling and averaging distances determined on a number of ship tracks projected onto plate tectonic flow lines. File names are, e.g., "CAPANT-ANT-bmdist.txt" which denotes distances on the ANT plate ridge flank for anomalies formed at the CAPANT plate boundary. The ridge flank regions presented here are as follows. SAMAFR-AFR: South America-Africa, Africa plate, South Atlantic Ocean. SAMAFR-SAM: South America-Africa, S. America plate, South Atlantic Ocean. CAPSOM-CAP: Capricorn-Somalia, Somalia plate, Indian Ocean. CAPSOM-SOM: Capricorn-Somalia, Capricorn plate, Indian Ocean. CAPANT-CAP: Capricorn-Antarctica, Capricorn plate, Indian Ocean. CAPANT-ANT: Capricorn-Antarctica, Antarctica plate, Indian Ocean. PACANT-PAC: Pacific-Antarctica, Pacific plate, South Pacific Ocean. PACANT-ANT: Pacific-Antarctica, Antarctica plate, South Pacific Ocean. ...
