Electromagnetic (EM) geophysical methods are used in a variety of applications from resource exploration, including for hydrocarbons and minerals, to environmental applications, such as groundwater monitoring. The primary physical property of interest in EM is electrical conductivity, which describes the ease with which electric current flows through a material.
