Gravity Corrections

bouguer_correction(topography[, …])

Gravitational effect of topography using a Bouguer plate approximation

For the Normal Earth correction, see package boule.

Equivalent Layers

EQLHarmonic([damping, points, depth, …])

DEPRECATED, use harmonica.EquivalentSources instead.

EQLHarmonicSpherical([damping, points, …])

DEPRECATED, use harmonica.EquivalentSourcesSph instead.

Forward modelling

point_mass_gravity(coordinates, points, …)

tesseroid_gravity(coordinates, tesseroids, …)

Compute gravitational field of tesseroids on computation points.

prism_layer(coordinates, surface, reference)
