Research
Middle Atlantic Ridge Study with Three-Dimensional Magnetotelluric novel Techniques (MARS3DMT)
MARS3DMT is to build a reliable three-dimensional resistivity model with magnetotelluric data at Middle Atlantic Ridge. The model will improve the understanding of partial melts, melt fraction, and water content beneath the middle ocean ridges.
Using electromagnetic methods to study quick clays in Rissa
Rissa with identified quick clays (QC) and a QC landslide is an ideal location to study QC. The electrical resistivity property of QC is higher than the surrounding marine clays. Therefore, electromagnetic methods are natural for QC studies.
