Description
Each section of seafloor has two graphs representing the two magnetic profiles taken at the same location. The data from the two profiles at each location is combined in the third graph to filter out variances in the measurement of the magnetic field. Measurements below the axis represent a reversed field, while those above the axis represent a normal field.
