Geomagnetically Induced Currents (GICs) are quasi-DC signals that are induced in the ground during geomagnetic disturbances (GMDs) and pose a large threat to power grid infrastructure. The power industry currently attempts to mitigate GIC effects by utilizing 1-D ground electrical conductivity based electric field predictions, though conductivity can vary in...
The Cascade Volcanic Arc has been the subject of extensive study in the past due to its active volcanism and its proximity to metropolitan areas. The triangle formed by the volcanoes Mount Saint Helens, Mount Rainier, and Mount Adams is of particular interest because of this potential danger and the...
