Accurate interpretation of magnetotelluric data requires an understanding of the
directionality and dimensionality inherent in the data, and valid implementation of an …

Presenting a coherent synthesis of lithosphere studies, this book covers a range of
geophysical methods (seismic reflection, refraction, and receiver function methods; elastic …

Electrical anisotropy, the effect of current density in a medium being a function of the
orientation of the electric field, is being recognized increasingly as an important effect in …

The Slave craton in northwestern Canada, a relatively small Archean craton (600× 400 km),
is ideal as a natural laboratory for investigating the formation and evolution of Mesoarchean …

Magnetotelluric studies of the Trans-Hudson orogen over the last two decades, prompted by
the discovery of a significant conductivity anomaly beneath the North American Central …

Archean cratons, and the stitching Proterozoic orogenic belts on their flanks, form an integral
part of the Southern Africa tectonic landscape. Of these, virtually nothing is known of the …

Within the framework of the Southern African Magnetotelluric Experiment a focused study
was undertaken to gain improved knowledge of the lithospheric geometries and structures of …

Magnetotelluric (MT) models reveal the continental lithosphere to be extremely electrically
complex. In this chapter, I have combined experimental conductivity data on typical …

Sedimentary facies associated with Paleo‐Proterozoic foredeeps are apparently highly
conductive. The conductive lithology appears to be a euxinic carbonaceous shale deposited …

After almost three decades of study, from its initial discovery in the 1960s to laboratory
analyses of rock samples last year, we can now identify the most probable cause of the …
