Quantitative interpretation of self-potential anomalies due to two-dimensional sheet-like bodies

A method for quantitative interpretation of self‐potential anomalies due to a two‐dimensional sheet of finite depth extent is proposed. In the case of an inclined sheet, positions and amplitudes of the maximum, minimum, and zero‐anomaly points are picked and then the origin is located on the horizontal gradient curve using the template of Rao et al (1965). The parameters of the sheet may be evaluated either geometrically or by using some analytical relations among the characteristic distances. When the sheet is vertical, the parameters may be evaluated using the positions of half and three‐quarter peak amplitudes.
