THE REACTION OF PHYSICAL TRANSFORMATION OF THE GRAVITY DATA AND LINEARITY DILEMMA

This paper consists of opinions on the article entitled as “Investigation of the Seismic Velocity Distribution and Crustal Structure of Turkey by means of Gravity Data” which was published on the page 185 of the 153rd issue of the Bulletin of Mineral Research and Exploration. Within this context, it was aimed at defining some dilemmas encountered in the article, which was targeted in the exploration of the crustal structure in plate scale by means of data sets, and informing the reader. Here, the interactive relationships of Gravity and Seismic methods of which each one are discipline of expertise will be studied within scope of the mentioned article.
