  2. Telluric current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telluric_current

    A telluric current (from Latin tellūs 'earth'), or Earth current, [1] is an electric current that flows underground or through the sea, resulting from natural and human-induced causes. These currents have extremely low frequency and traverse large areas near or at Earth 's surface.

  3. Ley line - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ley_line

    The Malvern Hills in the United Kingdom, said by Alfred Watkins to have a ley line passing along their ridge. Ley lines (/ l eɪ ˈ l aɪ n z /) are straight alignments drawn between various historic structures, prehistoric sites and prominent landmarks. The idea was developed in early 20th-century Europe, with ley line believers arguing that ...

  4. Geomagnetically induced current - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Geomagnetically_induced_current

    A time-varying magnetic field external to the Earth induces telluric currents—electric currents in the conducting ground. These currents create a secondary (internal) magnetic field. As a consequence of Faraday's law of induction, an electric field at the surface of the Earth is induced associated with time variations of the magnetic field ...

  5. Totem Talk: Restoration, Telluric Currents and Focused Insight

    This week, though, I thought we could take a look at two talents I've been getting a lot of questions and emails about lately, Telluric Currents and Focused Insight.

  6. Magnetotellurics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetotellurics

    In many situations, only the telluric sensors will be used, and magnetic data borrowed from other nearby soundings to reduce acquisition costs. A complete five-component set of MT equipment can be backpack-carried by a small field team (2 to 4 persons) or carried by a light helicopter , allowing deployment in remote and rugged areas.

  7. Marine geophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marine_geophysics

    Surveys can be done at either the sea surface or seafloor or in combination, using active current sources or natural Earth electrical currents, known as telluric currents. [10] In special cases, measurements of natural gamma radiation from seafloor mineral deposits have been made using scintillometers towed near the seafloor. [11]

  8. Outline of geophysics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_geophysics

    Geomagnetism – study of the Earth's magnetic field, including its origin, telluric currents driven by the magnetic field, the Van Allen belts, and the interaction between the magnetosphere and the solar wind. Mathematical geophysics – development and applications of mathematical methods and techniques for the solution of geophysical problems.
