	Telluric current - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Telluric currents are phenomena observed in the Earth's crust and mantle.
		The currents are induced by changes in the outer part of the Earth's magnetic field, which are usually caused by interactions between the solar wind and the ionosphere.
		Telluric currents flow in the surface layers of the earth.

		Telluric electric currents encircling the Earth are regarded as being useful in prospecting for oil and many minerals.
		In brief, the presence of oil causes alterations in the deep telluric currents which are carried inductively to the surface and affect the resonant sensors.
		It is predicted that the presence of oil, due to its lower electrical conductivity, distorts the electric field of the belt and causes resonant inductive effects in the surrounding rocks extending to the surface.

	Sources of Noise (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-21)
		A simple method to avoid the influence of these contact potentials is to periodically reverse the current flow in the current electrodes or use a slowly varying, a few cycles per second, AC current.
		By periodically reversing the current from the current electrodes, or by employing a slowly varying AC current, the affects of telluric currents on the measured voltage can be cancelled.

	Electrical Methods
		Using electrical methods, one may measure potentials, currents, and electromagnetic fields that occur naturally or are introduced artificially in the ground.
		Variations in the resistivity of earth materials, either vertically or laterally, produce variations in the relations between the applied current and the potential distribution as measured on the surface, and thereby reveal something about the composition, extent, and physical properties of the subsurface materials.
		Since the conduction of current in soil and rock is through the electrolyte contained in the pores, resistivity is governed largely by the porosity, or void ratio, of the material and the geometry of the pores.

	1.1 Extra-solar planets
		The transit of a telluric planet induces a photometric variation of a low amplitude which has to be distinguished from other signals as for instance the ones caused by the star activity or by noises of varius origins.
		Nevertheless the formation of such objects is not removed by the current models because the efficiency of the accretion mechanisms depends on the density or the mass of the protoplanetary discs.
		Therefore, according to the current planetary models which tell that the planetesimal accretion processes have come before gas capture (appearance of a rocky core whose mass is around 15 times the earth’s one, followed by a gas gravitationnal capture), we can conclude that the telluric planets formation should occur at least as oftenly.

	Creation Science and the Earth's Magnetic Field
		It is very hard to imagine a field of magnetic rocks, or a coherent telluric current, either of which is as large as one half or one quarter of the Earth.
		But Barnes is essentially forced to commit this error as a natural result of his rejection of dynamo theory, and his model of an exponentially decaying current in the Earth's core as the source of the Earth's magnetic field.
		If this exponentially decaying current model were valid, then Barnes could properly appeal to Cowling's theorem, since the axially symmetric current, and the pure dipole component, together fit the limited class of conditions in which Cowling's theorem prohibits dynamo maintenance.

		Need: Historically the effects of telluric currents on pipelines have been considered a curiosity and an inconvenience when conducting cathodic protection surveys for compliance with the pipeline codes and regulations.
		Result: This report describes two methods for modeling telluric currents in pipelines wherein the distributed source transmission line (DSTL) model has been used successfully to predict the magnitude of telluric currents and the associated potential variations throughout pipeline networks.
		Most of the techniques that have been developed require multiple recorders to collect data from stationary electrodes, prior to or during the survey, so that a correction factor can be derived and applied to the potential measured by the moving electrode.

	The Earth Energy of Fr. Athanasus Kirchner
		During this time period of the 1800s, the telluric notions of the alchemists came to be viewed as quite relevant and essential by many engineers and vital scientific knowledge to such notable personages as Crookes, and Lodge, who involved themselves deeply in the "psychic effects" and "spiritual effects" of telluric energies without fearof ridicule.
		Once secured from the Earth, these powerful energetic currents were conducted by the precisely constructed stonework, allowed to expand and process through various large stone chambers, where the continually inter-twining currents would concentrate, shift, magnify, bifurcate, and ultimately interact with the chosen few.
		All the immense energy of the Telluric Current was put through these modulations specifically for the purpose of magnifying the Consciousness Awareness, and the intellects and hearts of the chosen few.
