Electrical Resistivity Structure of the Altiplano-Puna Magma Body and Volcan Uturuncu from Magnetotelluric Data
DownloadFall 2015
An intense episode of silicic volcanism in the Southern Altiplano over the past ten million years has created a major volcanic province in the Central Andes known as the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex (APVC). Geophysical evidence indicates that magma is still present in a large mid-crustal...

Fall 2012
Convergent plate boundaries have played an important role in the growth and assembly of the modern continents. To obtain a better understanding of the tectonic processes in these boundaries, it is necessary to constrain the rheology of the crust and upper mantle in these regions. Magnetotelluric...

Spring 2010
Arc-continent collisions are a fundamental plate tectonic process that control continental growth, orogen development and the distribution of natural hazards and natural resources. This process actively occurs in Taiwan where the Luzon Volcanic Arc collides obliquely with the passive margin of...

Magnetotelluric Imaging of Electrically Anisotropic Crust Near Fort McMurray, Alberta: Implications for Engineered Geothermal Systems
DownloadFall 2014
The goal of this thesis is to investigate the character of the basement rocks beneath the oilsands region around Fort McMurray in the context of developing engineered geothermal systems (EGS). Magnetotelluric (MT) data were collected at 94 stations on two profiles near to Fort McMurray and...

Fall 2011
Magnetotelluric (MT) data were collected at 67 stations during the 2008, 2009, and 2010 field seasons in southern Alberta. These have been combined with more than 300 MT stations previously collected in Alberta, allowing a three dimensional electrical resistivity model of the lithosphere to be...

Spring 2020
This thesis uses the magnetotelluric (MT) method to image the electrical resistivity structure of the Laguna del Maule Volcanic Field (LdMVF) and the regional subduction zone structure of central Chile (36°S) in the vicinity of the 2010 Maule earthquake. The LdMVF surrounds the eponymous Laguna...

Magnetotelluric Investigations of the Tintina Fault Zone for Geothermal Exploration at Watson Lake, Yukon
DownloadFall 2023
Geothermal energy is being investigated as a renewable source of electricity and heat production for communities in northern Canada. The successful development of a geothermal energy project requires three key components: (1) there must be a source of sufficient heat at near-surface depths....

Three-Dimensional Electromagnetic Imaging of Porphyry Copper Deposits with MT and ZTEM Data
DownloadFall 2015
This thesis investigates the use of the airborne Z-Axis Tipper Electromagnetic (ZTEM) and ground-based magnetotelluric (MT) exploration techniques to image electrical resistivity contrasts associated with porphyry copper deposits. These techniques were individually used to construct...
