The bars are seismic depths and the dots are estimated depths based on the "half-width" of suitable magnetic anomalies. (After Raitt et al., 1955.) accounted for by any reasonable configuration of the basement. It could be caused by structural differences between opposite sides of the trench; it could also be explained by susceptibility changes within the basement rocks, or by their possessing a remanent magnetization aligned in some direction other than that of the present field.
