Geodynamical interpretation of crustal and upper mantle electrical conductivity
... Enhanced electrical conductivities in the deep crust of the Baikal region, as well as elsewhere in the world (Jones, 1992; Simpson, 1998; and references therein), have been attributed to water-saturation, brittle-ductile transitions, or graphitization. The wide range of the possible causes can be co ...
