Abstract
Using an exact numerical solution, the transient response of a two-lay er earth model is obtained for an obliquely incident transverse magnet ic (TM) plane wave, It is shown that the decomposition of the general case into ray contributions is an alternative approach that yields con sistent results, Several examples are given to demonstrate the sensiti vity of the results to the electrical properties of the subsurface reg ion.
