Natural harmonics use the pitch of the open string as the fundamental. Artificial harmonics require the string to be fully stopped by one finger to create an artificial fundamental and lightly touched by another finger to make the string vibrate in partials. By far the most common artificial harmonic is the touch 4 4th partial harmonic, created by lightly touching a perfect 4th above a stopped note on the same string.
