Time-Domain Electromagnetic Resistivity Mapping of a Fjord-Head Delta
Bibliographic record
Abstract
An electromagnetic (EM) survey was conducted on the Zeballos River delta, approximately 300kilometers north of Victoria, British Columbia, to determine whether EM methods can help delineate the three-dimensional architecture of a fjord-head delta. The EM data were collected using a Geonics EM-47 system with a 40-m transmitter loop. The data were downloaded and subsequently edited and interpreted using the TEMIXGL layered earth inversion package from Interpex. The interpretation provided a picture of the three-dimensional resistivity structure of the delta. Throughout most of the surveyed area, a relatively thick layer of resistive (>400ohm-m) sediment (gravel and sand—delta topset and foreset) overlies more conductive (10–20ohm-m) sediment (silt and clay—delta bottom-set), which in turn overlies resistive (>2,000ohm-m) bedrock. Shallow sediments in the intertidal zone are saturated with sea water and hence are very conductive. However, we were able to determine the depth to more resistive (fresh water) gravel and sand and, in some areas, what we interpret to be resistive bedrock. The results of this study indicate that EM resistivity surveying can provide constraints on sediment type and thickness which, when used in conjunction with geological mapping and borehole logs, help improve our understanding of the three-dimensional architecture of these deltas.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
