Moreover, it contains new developments such as the concept of self-consistent tasks of geophysics and , 3-D interpretation of the TEM sounding which, so far, have not all been covered by one book.
Electromagnetic Sounding of the Earth's Interior 2nd edition consists of three parts: I- EM sounding methods, II- Forward modelling and inversion techniques, and III - Data processing, analysis, modelling and interpretation. The new edition includes brand new chapters on Pulse and frequency electromagnetic sounding for hydrocarbon offshore exploration. Additionally all other chapters have been extensively updated to include new developments.
- Presents recently developed methodological findings of the earth’s study, including seismoelectrical and renewed magnetovariational approaches
- Provides methodological guidelines for Electromagnetic data interpretation in various geological environments
- Contains a balanced set of lectures covering all aspects of Electromagnetic sounding at global, regional and local levels along with case studies, highlighting the practical importance of electromagnetic data
- Updates current findings in the field, in particular MT, magnetovariational and seismo-electrical methods and the practice of 3D interpretations
Geophysists, Exploration Geophysicists, Geoscientists working on applied electromagnetics. Secondary Audience: The geothermal industry sector and the hydrocarbon exploration sector.
