Caption: Fig. 25.

Cross‐sectional views similar to Fig. 24, but for simulated conical shells. Each shell reproduces the CD data viewed at the inclinations listed at the left of each row and is viewed at the inclinations listed at the top of each column. Open circles represent simulated shell material, and simulated radial material is marked by crosses. Also plotted are the best‐fit, five‐parameter ellipses and centers through the full data set (thick lines, solid star) and only through the shell points (thin lines, open star). The ellipticity ﹩b/ a﹩ for each fit is given at top right and left of each panel, respectively.
