Whittall and Douglas W. Oldenburg; Includes bibliographical references and index N2 - The magnetotelluric (MT) method, pioneered by Tikhonov (1950) and Cagniard (1953), has been applied with varying degrees of success to yield information about the Earth's electrical conductivity, temperature regimes, and geologic structure. The strengths and weaknesses of the MT method are now generally appreciated and the majority of research over the past few years has concentrated on data processing, forward modeling and inversion. Historically, MT interpretation has used one-dimensional (1-D) forward modeling algorithms, 1-D inversions, and 2-D forward modeling ER -
