英文摘要	Imaging silicic systems using geophysics is challenging because many interrelated factors (e.g., temperature, melt fraction, melt composition, geometry) can contribute to the measured geophysical anomaly. Joint interpretation of models from multiple geophysical methods can better constrain interpretations of the subsurface structure. Previously published resistivity and shear wave velocity (Vs) models, derived separately from magnetotelluric (MT) and surface wave seismic data, respectively, have been used to model the restless Laguna del Maule Volcanic Field, central Chile. The Vs model contains a 450 km3 low-velocity zone (LVZ) interpreted as a region with an average melt fraction of 5–6%. The resistivity model contains a conductor (C3) interpreted as a region with a melt fraction >35%. The spatial extents of the LVZ and C3 overlap, but the geometries and interpretations of these features are different. To resolve these discrepancies, this study investigates the resolution of the MT data using hypothesis testing and constrained MT inversions. It is shown that the MT data are best fit with discrete conductors embedded within the larger LVZ. The differences between the MT and seismic models reflect resolution differences between the two data sets as well as varying sensitivities to physical properties. The MT data are sensitive to smaller volumes of extractable mush that contain well-connected crystal-poor melt (C3). The seismic data have lower spatial resolution but image the full extent of the poorly connected crystal-rich magma storage system. The combined images suggest that the LdMVF magma plumbing system is thermally heterogeneous with coexisting zones of warm and cold storage. ©2020. American Geophysical Union. All Rights Reserved.
