Color-filled KPLO magnetic anomaly estimates over (A) the Hayford crater area with the superposed contours of the RSH27 anomaly predictions up to degree 100. The black thin solid and dashed contours respectively mark positive, and negative anomalies at the mean 98 km altitude of the KPLO data. The thick black dashed circle delineates the poorly known crater boundary (centered at 12.9°N 170.5°W) directly east of the Hayford crater which is present with a small black thick dashed circle centered at 12.7°N, 178.4°W. (B) the Crisium basin with superposed TSH model anomaly predictions up to degree 100 at the KPLO’s mean altitude of 104 km. The thick black dashed line delineates the inner Crisium basin; and (C) the Abel crater with TSH anomaly predictions up to degree 100 at the mean KPLO altitude of 102 km. The thick dashed black circle delineates the Abel crater. All maps are in nT. The columns from left to right show maps of the Bθ, Bϕ, and Br magnetic vector components, and the total field anomalies. The correlation coefficients (CC) between the color-filled and contoured anomaly grids are in Table 1.
