PVPaul Voosen

Key Points

  • To map the deep-Earth structures and understand how they conduct electricity, revealing hidden geological features and resources.
  • Utilized a sensor array to trace electrical conduction in rocks
  • Analyzed properties of the Earth's crust for mineral resources and solar storm impacts
  • Identified regions of mineral riches in the crust
  • Revealed that some crust can amplify solar storms
  • Discovered fragments of ancient landmasses beneath the U.S.

Abstract

Sensor array traces how rocks conduct electricity, revealing mineral riches, crust that can amplify solar storms, and fragments of ancient landmasses
