Perspectives of Electromagnetic Sounding in the Arctic Ocean (Invited)
Abstract
The Arctic Ocean differs from other oceans by the fact that crust of continental type can be found in some parts of its area on typical oceanic depths. 3D modeling shows that MTS from ice cover reliably distinguishes the type of crust, but mapping of the ocean structures is possible only from the ocean floor. From the analysis of experimental MVP data it follows that more complex model of the source than the plane wave is needed.
