Geophys 292 approved, also can meet PhD requirement for 4 200-level classesnGEOPHYS 292 Magnetotellurics: introduction, practical data analysis and inversion. Designed for those with no knowledge of magnetotellurics or electromagnetic induction methods, this class will cover the theory and practice of the MT method with application to both commercial (mineral, oil/gas, and geothermal exploration) and academic (crustal and lithospheric studies). The second half of the class is a hands-on analysis and modelling workshop that will require use of a laptop and instructor-provided codes and data. The analysis will be using various methods to determine dimensionality and directionality, and testing the apparent resistivities and phases for internal consistency. The modelling will be 1D only, but knowledge and skills gained from understanding 1D inversion are equally applicable to 2D and 3D.nTextbook is ¿The Magnetotelluric Method: Theory and Practice¿ (Chave and Jones, CUP, 2012).
