Item Magnetic Studies of Rocks and Sediments Obtained by Deep Drilling(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Belshe, John C.Item The Paleomagnetic Significance of Aeromagnetic Surveys of the Hawaiian Islands(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Malahoff, Alexander; Strange, William E.Aeromagnetic surveys of the Hawaiian Islands have revealed that the primary magnetic anomalies associated with the islands are dipole anomalies caused by the intrusive rocks of the volcanic centers and rift zones. Comparisons of the direction of magnetization indicated by the dipole anomalies with results of laboratory measurements on lavas show that in many cases the lavas possess reverse polarization while the intrusive rocks are normally polarized. These results must be taken into account when interpreting the magnetic field of submerged marine volcanic features such as seamounts and when establishing periods of reversal in the earth's magnetic field.Item An Analysis of the Gravity Field Over the Hawaiian Islands in Terms of Crustal Structure(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Strange, William E.; Woollard, George P.; Rose, John C.Item Gravity and Magnetic Fields Over the Proposed Moho Hole Site North of Maui(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Rose, John C.; Belshe, John C.Item Gravity Relations in American Samoa and the Society Islands(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Machesky, L.F.Item Gravity Investigations on the Leeward Islands of the Hawaiian Ridge and Johnston Island(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Kroenke, Loren W.; Woollard, George P.Item A Gravity Survey of the Island of Niihau, Hawaii(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Krivoy, Harold L.Gravity data collected on Niihau support geologic evidence that the island is an erosional remnant of a dead shield volcano whose center of volcanism was just east of the present Niihau highlands. Bathymetric and gravity evidence offer clues to a genetic link between Niihau and west Kauai; onshore gravity suggests a continuous Bouguer high connecting the two regions. This link would be in accord with ocean-bottom topography, which shows a prominent ridge rising above sea level at Niihau and at Kaula Rock to the west.Item A Reconnaissance Gravity Survey of the Island of Kauai, Hawaii(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Krivoy, Harold L.; Baker, Melville Jr.; Moe, Euguene E.Item A Gravity Survey of the Island of Oahu, Hawaii(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Strange, William E.; Machesky, L.F.; Woollard, George P.Item A Gravity Survey of the Island of Kahoolawe, Hawaii(University of Hawai'i Press, 1965-07) Furumoto, Augustine S.
