ملخص البحث

Several volcanic buildups have been documented using gravity and magnetic data at specific locations in the Northern Red Sea (NRS). Most of these volcanoes were never sampled, and only a few were imaged by seismic or bathymetry data. Furthermore, the confidentiality of commercial datasets does not allow adequate knowledge of these structures and their morphology and physical properties. In this study, 2D and 3D seismic reflection data and 3D constrained inversion of magnetic and gravity data have been used to infer densities and magnetic susceptibilities of volcanic features in the central part of the NRS and to evaluate the distribution and geometry. This study indicates that the results of the 3D inverted models show a good fit with the volcanic structures inferred from seismic data and, thus, that the inversion technique adopted can be a reliable tool for detecting other edifices where seismic data are …
