Magnetotelluric Sampling and Geoelectric Hazard Estimation: Are National‐Scale Surveys Sufficient?

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2021
At present, the most reliable information for inferring storm‐time ground electric fields along electrical transmission lines comes from coarsely sampled, national‐scale magnetotelluric (MT) data sets, such as that provided by the EarthScope USArray ...

Mapping a Magnetic Superstorm: March 1989 Geoelectric Hazards and Impacts on United States Power Systems

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2022
A study is made of the relations between geomagnetic and geoelectric field variation, Earth‐surface impedance, and operational interference (“anomalies”) experienced on electric‐power systems across the contiguous United States during the 13–14 March ...

Estimating the Geoelectric Field and Electric Power Transmission Line Voltage During a Geomagnetic Storm in Alberta, Canada Using Measured Magnetotelluric Impedance Data: The Influence of Three‐Dimensional Electrical Structures in the Lithosphere

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2021
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

An investigation of the basement complex aquifer system in Lofa county, Liberia, for the purpose of siting boreholes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Liberia is recovering from a 14 year civil war and only 51% of the rural population has access to safe drinking water. Little hydrogeological knowledge survives in Liberia, increasing the difficulty in successfully siting new boreholes.

A 100‐year Geoelectric Hazard Analysis for the U.S. High‐Voltage Power Grid

open access: yesSpace Weather, 2020
A once‐per‐century geoelectric hazard map is created for the U.S. high‐voltage power grid. A statistical extrapolation from 31 years of magnetic field measurements is made by identifying 84 geomagnetic storms with the Kp and Dst indices.

Study on the geoelectric index (GEI): taking the geoelectric field observation in mainland China as an example

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards and Risk, 2023
AbstractThis paper reports three methods of researching the geoelectric index (GEI) based on the ratio between the variation amplitude of geoelectric field on an index calculation day and that on a magnetically quiet day, and uses the three methods to process the observation data of 18 geoelectric stations in China in September 2017.
