Despite the broad range of interest and applications, controls on calcite surface charge in
aqueous solution, especially at conditions relevant to natural systems, remain poorly …

Despite over 2 decades of international and national monitoring of electrical signals with the
hope of detecting precursors to earthquakes, the scientific community is no closer to …

This monograph deals with the part of the field of experimental rock deformation that is
dominated by the phenomena of brittle fracture on one scale or another. Thus a distinction …

Self‐potential electric and magnetic anomalies are increasingly being observed associated
with hydrothermal fields, volcanic activity, and subsurface water flow. Until now a formal …

Prior to large earthquakes the Earth sends out transient signals, sometimes strong, more
often subtle and fleeting. These signals may consist of local magnetic field variations …

We present a model describing ionic electrical conduction in porous media, with particular
emphasis given to surface conduction. The porous medium is assumed to consist of an …

The spectral induced‐polarization (IP) response of rocks and soils is a complex function of
pore solution chemistry, sample microgeometry, and surface chemical properties. We …

Various electrical phenomena have been reported prior to or concurrent with earthquakes
such as resistivity changes, ground potentials, electromagnetic (EM), and luminous signals …

1.1. Background Analysis of a wide range of problems in the geosciences requires
knowledge of the failure process in rock. This includes tunnel design and other engineer-ing …

The electrical properties of near-surface geomaterials have been hugely important in the
development of many modern welldeveloped countries, and will play a leading role in the …
