invert4geom.DatasetAccessorInvert4Geom.forward_gravity

DatasetAccessorInvert4Geom.forward_gravity(layer, name='forward_gravity', field='g_z', progressbar=False, **kwargs)

Calculate the forward gravity of the model at each point of the gravity grid. Add the calculated gravity effect as a new dataset variable.

Parameters:

• layer (Dataset) – a prism or tesseroid layer

• name (str) – Name to assigned the variable for the calculated gravity, by default “forward_gravity”

• field (str) – Choose which gravitational field to be calculated, by default “g_z” which is the downward acceleration.

• progressbar (bool) – Display a progress bar of the calculation, by default False

• kwargs (Any) – Additional keyword arguments to pass to harmonica.DatasetAccessorPrismLayer.gravity or harmonica.DatasetAccessorTesseroidLayer.gravity depending on the model type.

Return type:

None
