A Preliminary Investigation on Electric Structure of the Crust and Upper Mantle in Arxan Volcanic Area

Abstract: Magnetotelluric (MT) measurement has been carried out at 7 sites along a profile in NNW direction in Arxan active volcanic area. The data were processed and analyzed by using a two‐dimensional (2‐D) inversion. The obtained 2‐D result shows that two volcanic zones, an older and a younger volcanic zone with their magma conduits down to depth, exist in the study area. The newly found younger active volcanic zone still maintains its higher temperature state at depth of 10~12km, where there may exist abundant fluid… Show more

“…The electrical structure in the depth range 25∼40km is a conductive layer with about one hundred Ωm resistivity, and the resistivity of the structure beneath 40km increases but is smaller than one kilo-Ωm. With this electrical structure as the initial model, a MT-2D inversion [37] is carried out by the NLCG algorithm with both TE and TM mode's resistivity and impedance phase data, which fits the observational data very well and is very similar to the model shown in Fig. 4, but the two good conductive chunnels are more clear.…”

“…500 km. The deep-cut faults provide two channels for Quaternary magma migration from the mantle: one displays a high temperature and fluidenriched body approaching the depth of 10-12 km, and another has become cold above a depth of 30 km (Tang et al, 2005). The series of NNW-trending basement rifts deeply cut the crust, favoring the deep cycle of groundwater and the formation of hot springs.…”

“…Magnetotelluric (MT) use of natural alternating electromagnetic field study the earth electrical structure of a geophysical prospecting method, because of its low cost, convenient work, from the high resistance layer shielding, high resolution, the low resistance layer and vary with the frequency of the electromagnetic field exploration depth, light can be dozens of meters, the depth can reach hundreds of kilometers, Widely used in oil and gas exploration, structural detection and seismic monitoring, etc. [1,2]. Due to the complex structure and weak signal of the natural electromagnetic field, it is easy to be interfered with by noise.…”
