Evaluating the impact of earth transfer function on the geoelectric field for GIC modelling / M. Tinel, D. Boteler, L. Trichtchenko.M183-2/8074E-PDF

"Geomagnetic disturbances that occur as a result of solar activity create electric fields that affect power systems on the surface of the Earth. The effect on the power system depends on the size of the surface electric field, which depends on the conductivity structure of the Earth in the area of the power system. To assess the geomagnetic hazard to power systems Earth conductivity models have been produced for different geological regions across Canada. This study examines how uncertainties in the Earth model affect the calculated electric fields"--Summary, page i.
