Abstract
The electric and magnetic fields in the upper layer of a stratified flat conductor in the field of plane waves are studied. Expressions for the amplitude and phase of the components of the electric and magnetic fields are obtained and evaluated for various frequencies, angles of incidence, layer thicknesses, depths, and conductivities. The conductivities σ = 10−11 to 10−16 e.m.u. and the frequencies ƒ = 10−3 to 104 cycles/second considered are of interest in geophysics.Keywords
