Abstract
Results of geophysical investigation of shallow depth volcanic formations are presented.
The work discusses the method and 3D data inversion results of multinode resistivity tomography at the Karymskoe Lake above Tokarev crater, Academii Nauk volcano, Kamchatka. Results of exploration are presented as isosurfaces, accompanied by a discussion of the correlating scuba diving study. The usefulness of this type of electric tomography for the aquatic works and shallow volcanic structures study assessed.
Electromagnetic induction frequency soundings of shallow depth volcanic structures including exploration of mud pots channels, maar structure, hot springs water paths, ore-forming thermal field and petroleum traps were performed. The mud pot structure in 3D is visually presented.
