Personally, I think it is fine just to do the average

External Email - Use Caution

Dear experts,

When calculating global thickness, is it fine to simply use an average of lh.thickness and rh.thickness, or is it necessary to weight it according to the area of each hemisphere, so that the calculation is (lh.thickness x lh.area + rh.thickness x rh.area)/(lh.area +rh.area)?

Thanks!

Arsenije
