Magneto-telluric measurements show that zones of high electrical conductivity commonly
exist within the continental crust although their nature, depth and extent vary. The two most …

Fluid pressure in the crust may be controlled by different mechanisms according to depth,
temperature, and the mineralogy of the host rocks. Where rocks are fluid‐saturated, fluid …

Cratons have a long history of evolution. In this paper, applications of the magnetotelluric
method used in the study of craton lithosphere over the past 30 years were reviewed …

Magnetotelluric and multichannel seismic reflection measurements indicate that the
Phanerozoic lower continental crust is commonly electrically conductive and reflective, in …

Electrical resistivity changes, ground potentials, electromagnetic (EM), and luminous signals
preceding or accompanying earthquakes have been reported many times, in addition to …

We have compiled both laboratory and worldwide field data on electrical conductivity to help
understand the physical implications of deep crustal electrical profiles. Regional heat flow …

The LITHOPROBE program across the northern Cascadia subduction zone at Vancouver
Island has obtained geophysical data that suggest a dipping zone of trapped free pore water …

To illuminate rifting processes across the Transition Zone between the extensional Great
Basin and stable Colorado Plateau interior, we collected an east‐west profile of 117 …

The origin of high electrical conductive anomalies in the lower crust is a long-standing and
controversial problem. Although it has been proposed that saturated saline water or partial …

Magnetotelluric measurements show the lower continental crust to be electrically conductive
globally, typically 100–1000 times more conductive than dry rocks measured in the …
