Journal ArticleDOI
Directions of Rapid Geomagnetic Fluctuations
TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the vectors representing geomagnetic changes over intervals less than one hour tend to be confined to a plane at most temperate latitude stations, in many cases this plane is almost horizontal, but sometimes it is steeply inclined.
Journal ArticleDOI
The geomagnetic coast effect
W. D. Parkinson,F. W. Jones +1 more
TL;DR: The geomagnetic coast effect as mentioned in this paper is a phenomenon where the vertical component of the magnetic variation field is abnormally large near most coastlines and correlates positively with the inland horizontal component.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Tamar conductivity anomaly
TL;DR: Magneto-variational measurements in eastern Tasmania have shown the presence of a conductivity anomaly coinciding with the Tamar Lineament as mentioned in this paper, and the most likely explanation of the high conductivity is fractured rock saturated with conducting pore fluids.
Journal ArticleDOI
Models of conductive structure under the Canadian Cordillera
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used magnetotelluric soundings from 11 stations close to a profile transverse to strike in the Canadian Cordillera, the Rocky Mountains and the Rocky Mountain Trench of western Canada.
