Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGeomagnetic Anomalies: LineamentsGiovanni Pietro Gregori, Bruce Allen Leybourne, Ugo Coppa, Giuseppe LuongoGeomagnetic anomaly maps can be interpreted according to either (i) To the electromagnetic (e.m.) Induction by the solar wind that generates telluric currents aimed to oppose the geomagnetic field originated by the deep geomagnetic dynamo, or (ii) By stray currents that outflow from the deep Earth’s circuitry. The results correlate with other morphological, geodynamic, and tectonic features, which represent a … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2025 · 4,815 accessesView PDF Cite
