A major crustal feature in the southeastern United States inferred from the MAGSAT equivalent source anomaly field

The MAGSAT equivalent-source anomaly field evaluated at 325 km altitude depicts a prominent anomaly centered over southeast Georgia, which is adjacent to the high-amplitude positive Kentucky anomaly. To overcome the satellite resolution constraint in studying this anomaly, conventional geophysical data were included in analysis: Bouguer gravity, seismic reflection and refraction, aeromagnetic, and in-situ stress-strain measurements. This integrated geophysical approach, infers more specifically the nature and extent of the crustal and/or lithospheric source of the Georgia MAGSAT anomaly. Physical properties and tectonic evolution of the area are all important in the interpretation

Reconciling U.S. Disclosure Policy with International Accounting and Disclosure Standards

In November of 1988, at a Melbourne, Australia meeting of the International Association of Securities Commissioners (IOSCO), the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) released a policy statement entitled Regulation of the International Securities Markets. \u27 The statement identified three broad areas of regulation that should be addressed in an effective international securities mar- ket regulatory system: efficient structures, sound disclosure systems, and fair and honest markets. The Commission stated that: To achieve those objectives, securities regulators in each nation should work closely with their foreign counterparts and seek coordinated in- ternational solutions to world market problems. 2 Significantly, the SEC did not insist that its methods of regulation were the best or the only means of achieving the stated goals
