Estimating the effect of geomagnetic disturbances on power grid infrastructure is an important problem since they can induce damaging currents in electric power transmission lines. In this study, an array of magnetotelluric (MT) impedance measurements in

Geomagnetically Induced Currents in the Irish Power Network during Geomagnetic Storms
Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) are a well-known terrestrial space weather hazard. They occur in power transmission networks and are known to have adverse effects in both high and mid-latitude countries.

Abstract The scoria cones called Formica Leo located at the base of the Piton de la Fournaise terminal cone have been chosen for its significant positive Self‐Potential (SP) anomalies associated with hydrothermal uprising fluids to monitor SP signal and study its dynamics in relation with huge and extreme rainfall events.

A resistivity meter can find out resistivity depth of rock structure, sediment layer, or the depth of water surface. However, the resistivity meter that is often used requires manually recording of the measurement results before inputting them into the ...

Strong geomagnetic disturbances and induced currents on Earth surface [PDF]
Long-term variations in strong geomagnetic storms are analyzed and linked to electric fields induced on Earth. In fact, geomagnetic disturbances generate electric fields that drive currents in the Earth which may have significant effects on electrical ...

Combined three-dimensional electric and seismic tomography study on the Aknes rockslide in western Norway [PDF]
We present a combined 3-D geoelectric and seismic tomography study conducted on the large Aknes rockslide in western Norway. Movements on the slope are strongly influenced by water infiltration, such that the hydrogeological regime is considered as a ...

Abstract Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) are naturally occurring electrical currents that flow through the Earth and long conductive infrastructure, such as power lines, during geomagnetic storms. GICs in the electric power grid can cause damage to electric power transformers, system failures, and wide‐scale blackouts.

Relationship between Interplanetary Conditions and Changes in the Geomagnetic Field to Understand the Causes of Geomagnetically Induced Currents [PDF]
Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GICs) are electrical currents induced in ground-level conductive networks, like power lines and pipelines, which can cause costly damage to infrastructure.

Abstract Geomagnetic storms can induce geomagnetically induced currents (GIC) in power systems, posing threats to grid security. In this study, a GIC calculation model for the 500 kV power grid in Guangxi, China, is developed based on one‐dimensional (1D) and various three‐dimensional (3D) magnetotelluric (MT) impedance data.

Geophysical assessment of subsurface conditions at proposed building sites: implications for foundation failure and building collapse [PDF]
Building collapse has been a recurrent environmental hazard in Nigeria in the last two decades. This is a corollary of inadequate foundation investigation prior to construction, poor government policies, and general lack of awareness on the importance of
