Geophysical Mapping of an Impact Crater in Northeastern Brazil

The book "Geophysical Mapping of an Impact Crater in Northeastern Brazil" offers a comprehensive analysis of the Serra da Cangalha impact crater in Brazil. It highlights the geophysical processes associated with the impact of extraterrestrial objects and their effects on the geological evolution of the Earth. By applying integrated magnetotelluric models (2-D and 3-D) as well as aeromagnetic datasets, a quantitative characterization of the crater is conducted. The results provide new insights into the kinematic structure of the subsurface and the underlying geological formations. The book also discusses the environmental changes caused by the impact in the region, thus providing valuable information for geoscientists and those interested in planetary processes.
