| Abstract | The sea as a dynamic conducting medium interacts continually with the earth' s magnetic field. The physical principles underlying this interaction are reviewed. These results are applied to the particular problem of towed electrodes at the sea surface. Data using this method are then shown to be sensitive to stability oscillations especially in lower latitudes. Finally, some features of the water velocity around the Panama Basin are investigated from towed electrode measurements. |
