No global relation, however, exists between these parameters and correlations are often valid for only a limited target area. Independently derived inverse models from these methods can be combined, using a classification approach, to map geologic structure. The method employed is based solely on the statistical correlation of physical properties in a joint parameter space and is independent of theoretical or empirical relations linking electrical and seismic parameters. Regions of high correlation (classes) between resistivity and velocity can in turn be mapped back and reexamined in depth section. The spatial distribution of these classes, and the boundaries between them, provide structural information not always evident in the individual models. This method is applied to a 10 km long profile crossing the Dead Sea Transform in Jordan. Several prominent classes are identified with specific lithologies in accordance with local geology. An abrupt change in lithology across the fault, together with vertical uplift of the basement suggest the fault is sub-vertical within the upper crust.
