Shallow depth geophysical data from archaeological sites contain various levels and types of noise that hinters the valuable information of the subsurface architectural relics. Wavelet transform techniques were tested as a method for decomposition of the original geophysical data in order to eliminate the noise levels inherent to the geophysical measurements. In addition to the above, unsupervi...

Characterization of fractured-bedrock aquifers is one of the most difficult problems in hydrogeology. Successful characterization of aquifers at the site scale requires the effective integration of the three basic tools at our disposal: 1) surface geophysical soundings provide full non-destructive coverage of the aquifer volume but are generally ambiguous in interpretation and fail to identify ...

24 25 Tropical intraseasonal variability is examined in version 3 of the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics 26 Laboratory Atmosphere Model (AM3). Compared to its predecessor AM2, AM3 uses a new treatment 27 of deep and shallow cumulus convection and mesoscale clouds. The AM3 cumulus parameterization is 28 a mass flux-based scheme but also, unlike that in AM2, incorporates subgrid-scale vertical velocit...

This work aims at figuring out the spatial relationships between the geophysical and geological models in a case study pertaining to copper-sulfide mineralization through an integrated 3D analysis of favorable target. The Ghalandar Skarn-Porphyry Cu Deposit, which is located in NW Iran, is selected for this research work. Three geophysical surveys of direct current electrical resistivity and in...

The ability to produce three-dimensional physical property models of the subsurface from surface geophysical data, coupled with an increasing need to explore for minerals in concealed terranes, results in geophysical inversions providing more significant information to the exploration team. We examine the role that geophysical inversion can play in an integrated mineral exploration program, and...

OF THE DISSERTATION Velocity and Attenuation Profiles in the Monterey Deep-Sea Fan

in march 2004, a fluxgate gradiometer survey was conducted over tepe ghabristan, covering approximately 6ha of ground. it identified further areas of the iron age cemetery with possible grave pits (areas b and c). in addition, an irrigation channel was discovered which could be contemporary to these iron age graves (area d). the anomalies in area e can be interpreted as buried structural remain...

[1] Estimation of the three-dimensional (3-D) distribution of hydrologic properties and related uncertainty is a key for improved predictions of hydrologic processes in the subsurface. However it is difficult to gain high-quality and high-density hydrologic information from the subsurface. In this regard a promising strategy is to use highresolution geophysical data (that are relatively sensiti...
