Magnetic anomalies at sea around the northern part of Japan.
Detailed magnetic surveys were carried out at sea around the northern part of Japan as part of “The Basic Map of the Sea Project” by the Hydrographic Department of Japan from 1968 to 1972. Tracklines are spaced every two nautical miles in most part of the surveyed areas, where geomagnetic total inte...
