Sediment Thicknesses and Structure, Bay of Bengal

这项研究实际上包括两个研究项目。的 首先，也可能是最重要的，是试图证实 孟加拉的最大沉积厚度 盆地超过22公里，而不是通常所说的16公里。的 二是研究了1989年以来南北走向的两条海隆 孟加拉湾、90酵母岭和85 E岭。 现有的磁力和地震反射数据将被合并 用重力网络来理解 该地区的等离子体。

This study actually consists of two research programs. The first, and probably most important, is an attempt to corroborated the possibility that the maximum sediment thickness in the Bengal basin exceed 22km, rather than the 16km generally cited. The second is the study of two aseismic ridges aligned about N.S in the Bay of Bengal, the Ninetyeast Ridge and the 85 E Ridge. Existing magnetic and seismic reflection data will be combined and extended with gravity network to understand the state of isostasy in the region.
