Exploration and Environmental Geophysics II - GEOS306

This unit further explores the application of geophysical techniques from exploration for minerals to environmental, engineering and ground water problems. This unit builds on the foundation work covered in GEOS305, incorporating case history studies to further illustrate the application of geophysical methods. Practical work includes laboratory exercises in the reduction, plotting and interpretation of geophysical data. The field excursion gives students an appreciation of the practical application of geophysics, highlighting the advantages and limitations of the techniques studied during the unit.
