Abstract
Computer programs in FORTRAN 77 to compute the gravity anomaly of a tw o-dimensional (2-D) body of irregular cross section with hyperbolic an d parabolic variations in density contrast are developed and presented . The gravity anomaly of San Jacinto Graben, California, using a hyper bolic function and that of Los Angeles Basin, California, using a para bolic function, are computed and compared with respective observed ano malies.
