Multistation magnetotellurics. Final report, 1 January 1996--30 June 1997
Abstract
The author has developed the foundations of a practical multivariate approach to processing magnetotelluric array data. Compared to current standards for magnetotelluric data processing, the multivariate approach is unique in that all available data channels are used simultaneously. The approach is outlined in this report. Using Multmtrn, a program for multiple station analysis of magnetotelluric data, the author achieved significant improvements in apparent resistivity and phase estimates in initial tests. Examples of the use of this approach are given including: Carrizo Plain and Parkfield electromagnetic profiling data; sea floor magnetotelluric (MT) data from the Gulf of Mexico; MT survey in a culturally noisy area of Bavaria; and Parkfield/Hollister earthquake monitoring array data. Experience with these projects has resulted in an improved program. The new version of the code is available at http://www.cg.NRCan.gc.ca/mtnet/mtnet.html or by contacting egbert{at}oce.orst.edu. Appendices of this report present documentation for Multmtrn.
