Coupled seismic and electromagnetic wave propagation

Coupled seismic and electromagnetic wave propagation is studied theoretically and experimentally. This coupling arises because of the electrochemical double layer, which exists along the solid-grain/fluid-electrolyte boundaries of porous media. Within the double layer, charge is redistributed, creating an excess electrical charge in the fluid...

Electrokinetic conversion

In their search for improved and new exploration tools, geophysicists have improved seismic and electromagnetic techniques. Since the 1930s it is known that there is a coupling between seismic and electromagnetic waves in the shallow subsurface of the earth. Electroseismic surveying and its reciprocal process, seismic-to-electromagnetic...
