A new method of interpreting self-potential anomalies of two-dimensional inclined sheets

A new method of interpreting self-potential anomalies of inclined sheet-like bodies of infinite strike length is presented in this study. In contrast to conventional schemes, the method does not explicitly make use of the magnitudes of the anomaly values during inversion. But, positions of a pair of points, at which the anomaly values differ from each other by a constant magnitude, are selected to construct some linear equations. The coefficients of these equations are functions of the model parameters, and hence the latter are solved from these coefficients. The method can be extended to gravity and magnetic anomalies of various models of simple geometry.
