Notes

An audio-magnetotelluric (AMT) survey was also carried out in August 2005 covering about 3 km_3 km around the CHS. Using controlled-source audio-magnetotelluric (CSAMT) and natural-source audio-magnetotelluric (NSAMT) methods, 1D and 2D inversions of the data were subsequently performed (Reed and Liu, 2006). The AMT results did not show an obvious low-resistivity anomaly in the vicinity of the hot springs.
