Basic Magnetotellurics by Christopherson

If you like more detail than Wikipedia offers...

"Dissected, the word “magnetotellurics” has two parts – “magneto” for magnetic and “telluric” for earth currents. MT is a geophysical method that measures magnetic and electric fields that are found in the earth. Basically, MT is a geophysical method that measures naturally occurring, time-varying magnetic and electric fields. From these measurements we can derive resistivity estimates of the subsurface, from the very near surface to tens of thousands of feet. "
