Resistivity, induced polarization, self-potential, and electromagnetic methods are commonly used for mineral exploration and environmental surveys. Students will learn the theory and application of Maxwell's equations on which these methods are based, and apply this understanding to analysing and interpreting data acquired with these methods. Geophysicists use these methods to image the Earth to depths ranging from several meters to tens of kilometers.
