Knowledge graph centered on Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility (AMS) with 36 nodes and 108 connections. Top connected: Colorado River, thermal constraints, hypogene mineralization, hydraulic gradient, redox reactions.
Description
Oriented rock cubes are measured for directional magnetic susceptibility to determine fabric orientation and strength. Principal axes and confidence ellipses calculated using Jelinek statistics.
Typical Equipment
- rock hammer
- GPS units
- magnetic compass
- AGICO KLY-4S Kappabridge susceptibility meter
Output Measurements
- magnetic susceptibility axes
- degree of anisotropy
- shape factor
