A bstract When the fixed‐source electromagnetic method is applied the quantities measured are influenced by the resistivity of the whole environment. This occurs mostly in the cases of measurements in areas with prevailing high resistivities, and if a weathered layer with considerably lower resistivity than that of the original rock has been formed near the surface. For this reason it is important to be acquainted with the properties of the two‐layer ground with an overlying conductive layer. In the present paper attention will be drawn to theoretical calculations connected with the field of the homogeneous ground and that of the two‐layer ground.
