Just a few meters below the Earth's surface lie features of great
importance, from geological faults which can produce devastating
earthquakes, to lost archaeological treasures. This refreshing,
up-to-date book explores the foundations of interpretation theory
and the latest developments in near-surface techniques, used to
complement traditional geophysical methods for deep-exploration
targets. Clear but rigorous, the book explains theory and practice
in simple physical terms, supported by intermediate-level
mathematics. Techniques covered include magnetics, resistivity,
seismic reflection and refraction, surface waves, induced
polarization, self-potential, electromagnetic induction,
ground-penetrating radar, magnetic resonance, interferometry,
seismoelectric and more. Sections on data analysis and inverse
theory are provided and chapters are illustrated by case studies,
giving students and professionals the tools to plan, conduct and
analyze a near-surface geophysical survey. This is an important
textbook for advanced-undergraduate and graduate students in
geophysics and a valuable reference for practising geophysicists,
geologists, hydrologists, archaeologists, and civil and
geotechnical engineers.
