GsAMT simulator

A controlled transmitter fixes the AMT dead band

Method notes

Interpretation

With the transmitter 5000 m away, far-field conditions at 100 Hz require at least 1120 m of separation - the geometry is valid.

Skin depth @ marker

373 m

Far-field limit (3 skin depths)

1,120 m

Far field (valid)

Near-field bias

Apparent resistivity

55 ohm-m

Measured vs far-field apparent resistivity

Where the two curves separate at low frequency, the sounding is near-field contaminated.

Far field (true)Measured

Near-field bias factor

A value of 1 means the plane-wave assumption holds at that frequency.
