Seismoelectric coupling and its current and potential future applications

The seismoelectric method—the naturally-occurring coupling of seismic waves to electromagnetic fields—can provide insight into important properties of porous media. With a variety of potential environmental and engineering uses, as well as larger scale applications such as earthquake detection and oil and gas exploration, it offers a number of advantages over conventional geoEdit HTML Sourcephysical methods.

Seismoelectric Exploration: Theory, Experiments, and Applications explores the coupling between poroelastic and electromagnetic disturbances, discussing laboratory experiments, numerical modeling techniques, recent theoretical developments, and field studies. 

Volume highlights include:

  • Physics of the seismoelectric effect at the microscale
  • Governing equations describing coupled seismo-electromagnetic fields
  • Examples of successful seismoelectric field experiments in different geological settings
  • Current and potential applications of seismoelectric coupling
  • Noise removal techniques for seismoelectric field measurements
  • The American Geophysical Union promotes discovery in Earth and space science for the benefit of humanity. Its publications disseminate scientific knowledge and provide resources for researchers, students, and professionals.
