Produktbeschreibung

The magnetotelluric method is a technique for imaging Earth's electrical conductivity and structure, from the near surface to 1,000 km in depth. This book provides a rigorous introduction to magnetotellurics, from the salient physics to practical implementation in the field, for academic researchers, advanced students, and industrial practitioners and geoscientists.
