Abstract
In 1964 a reconnaissance marine gravity survey was
conducted in the Solomon Islands by the Hawaii Institute
of Geophysics, University of Hawaii. In 1965 a more
detailed survey was conducted in the same area by the same
investigators,, In one particular area of the survey,
gravity anomalies obtained in 1 964 differed from those
obtained in 1965 by as much as 168 milligals. In other
areas where differences did occur, these were on the order
of 25 milligals. This thesis reports the investigation
carried out to determine the reason or reasons for the
large discrepancies.
