The fundamentals of methods in nuclear geophysics and their
practical applications in engineering geology, hydrology,
hydrogeology, agriculture and environmental science are discussed
in this book. The methods and apparatus based on absorption and
scattering of gamma and neutron radiation for determination of
density and soil moisture in natural conditions are presented in
Chapters 2, 3, and 4. The theoretical fundamentals and
installations of the penetration logging techniques where gamma,
gamma-gamma and neutron logging in combination with static
penetration form common complexes for engineering geology and
hydrogeology exploration without boring holes are described. The
developed constructions and practical use penetration logging
installations for applications on land and marine shelves are
described in Chapters 5, 6, 7, and 8. The physical fundamentals for
the use of the natural stable and radioactive isotopes for study of
the global hydrological cycle are provided. The experimental data,
origin and distribution of cosmogenic and radiogenic isotopes in
the oceans, atmospheric moisture, surface and underground waters
are presented in Chapters 9, 10, and 11. The sources and conditions
of the radioactive contamination of the natural waters are
discussed in Chapters 12 and 13. This book will be of interest to
scientists and researchers who use nuclear geophysics methods in
engineering geology, hydrology, hydrogeology and hydrogeoecology.
Lecturers, students, and postgraduates in these subjects will also
find it useful.
