Three-dimensional combined inversion method of the MT and Network-MT response functions by Yoshiya Usui, Makoto Uyeshima

“…Although galvanic distortion can be estimated in addition to subsurface resistivity in the inversion, it requires the determination of the tradeoff parameters for the regularization terms for the distortion tensor as well as the resistivity structure. One of the most effective approaches for robustly estimating the resistivity structure with correction of galvanic distortion is using the response function of the Network-MT method, which uses metallic telephone lines to measure the electric field. …”
