Contributions of up- and downgoing TM- and TE-modes

This is an example for the add-on tmtemod. The example is taken from the CSEM-book by Ziolkowski and Slob, 2019. Have a look at the CSEM-book repository on empymod/csem-ziolkowski-and-slob for many more examples.

Model parameters

# Offsets
x = np.linspace(10, 1.5e4, 128)

# Resistivity model
rtg = [2e14, 1/3, 1, 70, 1]  # With target
rhs = [2e14, 1/3, 1, 1, 1]   # Half-space

# Common model parameters (deep sea parameters)
model = {
    'src': [0, 0, 975],              # Source location
    'rec': [x, x*0, 1000],           # Receiver location
    'depth': [0, 1000, 2000, 2040],  # 1 km water, target 40 m thick 1 km below
    'freqtime': 0.5,                 # Frequencies
    'verb': 1,                       # Verbosity
}

Calculation

target = empymod.dipole(res=rtg, **model)
tgTM, tgTE = empymod.tmtemod.dipole(res=rtg, **model)

# Without reservoir
notarg = empymod.dipole(res=rhs, **model)
ntTM, ntTE = empymod.tmtemod.dipole(res=rhs, **model)

Figure 1

Plot all reflected contributions (without direct field), for the models with and without a reservoir.

The result shows that mainly the TM-mode contributions are sensitive to the reservoir. For TM, all modes contribute significantly except $T^{+-}$, which is the field that travels upwards from the source and downwards to the receiver.

Figure 2

Finally we check if the result from empymod.dipole equals the sum of the output of empymod.tmtemod.dipole.
