Abstract

ABSTRACT

A new integral‐equation program for calculation of the E‐polarization response allows modeling of VLF for plane wave or line source input, e.g., magnetotellurics and Turam responses. The anomalous conducting body is modeled by a number of square cells, each of individual size and resistivity, and with arbitrary position in the host medium. This provides a high degree of flexibility and allows for simulation of rather complex conductivity structures. The computation time has been drastically reduced by using techniques such as digital filtering and fast Fourier transformation.

The interpretation of a measured Turam profile and the influence of galvanically channelled currents in the conducting body is discussed.
