f MT as an Exploration Technology: A Review

This paper is a review of recent developments in the magnetotelluric method. Although there are many application areas to which MT may be applied, the increasing use of MT as a 'standard' survey method is emphasized. The review briefly considers the directions being taken to enable MT to 'become more useful' to the exploration community. A number of developments in the areas of data acquisition, response function estimation and modelling/inversion are discussed. Such developments should ultimately lead to MT surveys which consistently 'add-value' in the solution of exploration problems.
