Electromagnetic Sounding of the Earth's Interior

With over 30 years’ geophysics experience, Dr. Spichak’s main research interests include joint interpretation of electromagnetic and other geophysical data, indirect estimation of the Earth’s physical properties from the ground electromagnetic data, and computational electromagnetics. Spichak has authored and edited 8 books with Elsevier, including Electromagnetic Sounding of the Earth's Interior (2015). He is the winner of the Gamburtsev award for the monograph “Magnetotelluric fields in three-dimensional models of geoelectrics” (1999) and the Schmidt medal for outstanding achievements in Geophysics (2010).
