Geophysical techniques offer robust and non‐invasive approaches for imaging and evaluating the subsurface, playing a critical role in the detection and analysis of sinkhole phenomena. By utilising ...

The use of geophysical methods has spread from the fringes of exploration to the heart of reservoir management during a quarter-century of technological expansion that the incoming president of the ...

Brad Carr, foreground, an associate research scientist in the UW Department of Geology and Geophysics, sets up a transient electromagnetic instrument at Spouter Geyser in Yellowstone National Park ...

Applied geophysics is the study of how the Earth works and what it's made of. Scientists called geophysicists use this knowledge to explore what's under the ground, check for dangers like earthquakes, ...

This chapter addresses methods for the remote detection and characterization of fractures in the subsurface. These indirect detection methods are mainly geophysical in nature and rely on the physical ...

Chelsea Leu, a third-year in geophysical sciences, spent spring break learning scientific field methods at San Salvador in the Bahamas with a group of other University of Chicago students and faculty ...

One of the remarkable aspects of science is its ability to extend our sense of perception beyond touch and sight, often using the information provided by the "scattering" of waves. A group of ...

My research involves the use of geophysical methods, primarily seismology, but also including geodesy and electromagnetic methods, to understand mountain belts, subduction zones, and earthquakes. I am ...
