Deep electrical imaging of the extinct oceanic ridge in the southwestern sub-basin of the South China Sea by Yan Gao, Jianping Li, Jianping Li, Fuyuan Li, Ruwei Zhang, Ruwei Zhang, Yunsheng Zhao, Yunsheng Zhao, Zhanxiang He, Zhanxiang He

“…The magnetotelluric (MT) method is a crucial tool in studying the deep resistivity structure as it is sensitive to resistivity which is affected by heat and allows for imaging of the electrical properties of the mantle. While modern electromagnetic data has enhanced our understanding of the deep structure of rapidly expanding and ultra-slow expanding mid-ocean ridges, the deep electrical structure below extinct mid-ocean ridges has not been studied extensively.In July 2020, marine MT instruments were deployed in the southwest subbasin of the South China Sea to study the resistivity structure below a stalled mid-ocean ridge. …”
