Geoelectric modeling of the Chacoparanense Basin in Santa Fe-Entre Ríos from a magnetotelluric study

The magnetotelluric data analyzed in this study correspond to the west-east regional-scale profile at 31.5°S registered between 2001 and 2008. This profile extends from its western end at San Juan province to the eastern part of Entre Ríos province near the Uruguay river. Data interpretation of twen...
