magnetic survey is nowadays the most efficient non-destructive geophysical method. this technique puts emphasis on the measurement of anomalies of the earth’s magnetic field, caused by the presence of archaeological remains in the ground. magnetic survey is one of the oldest geophysical methods for airborne and land use. that is why there is a large volume of data that could be used for geologi...

ground penetrating radar (gpr) and magnetic methods were used at ghasr-e-shirin town in kermanshah province, southwest of iran for detecting a series of large ancient (ca 1500 years) underground cavities (tagh). the area of study is a historical monument which is named as emarat e khosro. radar and total intensity magnetic field measurements have been done on the eastern part of the complex, wh...

This paper describes the application of approximate methods to invert airborne magnetic data as well as helicopter-borne frequency domain electromagnetic data in order to retrieve a joint model of magnetic susceptibility and electrical resistivity. The study area located in Semnan province of Iran consists of an arc-shaped porphyry andesite covered by sedimentary units which may have potential ...

Inversion of magnetic data is an important step towards interpretation of the practical data. Smooth inversion is a common technique for the inversion of data. Physical bound constraint can improve the solution to the magnetic inverse problem. However, how to introduce the bound constraint into the inversion procedure is important. Imposing bound constraint makes the magnetic data inversion a n...

iron oxide minerals in soils provide valuable insights into pedogenic processes. a wealth of such information has been obtained by rock magnetic investigations on temperate soils but similar studies on tropical soils are rare. here, we report rock magnetic data on pristine soil profiles and surficial soils from five catchments in the tropical southern india and throw light on the pedogenic pro...

in order to obtain maximum information from magnetic and gravity anomaly maps, application of an edgedetection method is necessary. in this regard two commonly used methods are derivative filters and local phase filters. in this paper, a matlab code is expanded to combine an analytic signal filter and a tilt angle filter as a new edge detection filter called asta filter. this method was demonst...
