Abstract
Moving seawater through geomagnetic field can evoke a distribution of weak electric currents in the medium, which may generate a measurable magnetic field. The velocity vector of moving seawater can be resolved by using the ship wave theory, and the induced magnetic field can be evaluated by solving the Maxwell equations. Simulation results show that the induced magnetic field by the wake of a typical cruising vessel is on the order of a few hundred pico-Tesla near the sea surface.
