| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Based on the theoretical formulation of the ocean dynamo effect, in which ocean currents in the earth’s magnetic field generate the variations of electric and magnetic fields due to the motional induction, we developed a new method for probing the electrical conductivity structure under the seafloor from the seafloor observations of the variations of the electromagnetic filed and pressure change due to ocean currents. Applying the method to the observed data sets, we demonstrated the possibility of estimating the conductivity structure below seafloor by using the signals generated by tsunamis and estimated the application limit of the present method.
