Electromagnetic (EM) geophysical methods are applied on scales ranging from the near-surface to the deep mantle. Aspects of EM induction in geophysics include new instrumentation and data acquisition methods, mathematical and numerical improvements to data processing, modelling, and inversion, ground-based and measurements in the marine environment, airborne and satellite missions. We are interested in studies of EM applied to global induction, imaging regional scale tectonic, magmatic, or volcanic systems, in the search for hydrocarbon, geothermal, or mineral resources, and the investigation of near surface structure relevant to environmental, urban, and hydrological systems. Results from EM methods are often part of multi-disciplinary studies integrating data from rock physics and other geophysical, geochemical, and geological methods to investigate complex subsurface structures and their temporal evolution. Neighbouring fields of research encompass the study of natural and controlled EM sources, geo-magnetically induced currents, space weather, or geomagnetic field studies based on observatory data. This session welcomes contributions on all aspects of EM induction in geophysics.
