Abstract

Abstract

Mohns ridge in the north of Atlantic Ocean is a very important expansive band. One of the key for the Fifth Chinese National Arctic Research Expedition is to acquire the magnetic data on Mohns ridge. According to the magnetic,gravity and seismic data,the Mohns ridge expansion,characteristics of crustal structure and thickness are researched. These studies contribute to better understanding of the earth's geological process,seafloor spreading and crust mantle.
- Mohns ridge,
- crustal structure,
- thickness,
