The basic theory of electrical and electromagnetic exploration, electrical properties of minerals and rocks. Natural-source methods (self-potential and magnetotelluric,) and artificial-source methods (direct current resistivity, induced polarization, ground penetrating radar, electromagnetic induction) are studied in terms of field acquisition procedures, data processing, and data interpretation. One data inversion and modeling software will be utilized during the course to get hands on experience in forward and inverse modeling techniques used in interpretation of electrical and electromagnetic data.
Pre-requisites: GEOP205 And PHYS305
