| Abstract: | Summary. A method is described for finding a resistivity model that fits given magnetotelluric data in the one-dimensional case. The procedure is automatic and objective in that no a priori model structure is imposed. Starting with a uniform half space derived directly from the data, the procedure gradually transforms the half space to one with a continuous and smooth resistivity distribution whose response fits the measured data. The method is illustrated by application to two magnetotelluric data sets. |
