Vine, F.J. and Matthews, D.H. (1963). Magnetic anomalies over oceanic ridges. Nature 199(4897): 947-949.

The pattern of magnetic anomalies observed over oceanic ridges, characteristically consisting of long-period anomalies over the foothills, shorter-period anomalies on the flanks, and a pronounced central anomaly over median valleys, is discussed in the light of current concepts of spreading of ocean floors and periodic reversals in the earth's magnetic field.
