Geophysical methods - please help

Featured Replies

Could you help me with them, please.

 

The bedrock plateau at a depth of about two meters and consists of
almost unweathered quartz sandstone.

 

Which of the following geophysical methods might be principally used to locate the ditch and why ?
Gravimetry [density = density].
Magnetometry [magnetic susceptibility].
Geoelectric (resistance) methods [resistivity].
Radionuclide methods [of uranium, thorium and potassium].
Seismic (refraction) measurements [propagation velocity of longitudinal seismic waves]

He's going to archaeological research the castle, which

will be preceded by geophysical measurements. The challenge is also localization

said ditch. According to available information,

it is almost certain that trench was carved into the rock, its depth could be around 6 meters and width of 6-8 meters. We can assume that filling the trench extinct forms loamy - stony material with a share flushes cultural layers.


Please, help me

Well homework help is meant to help you do some work.

 

You have listed 5 methods but have not thought about any of them, so i will start you off.

 

Will Radionucleide methods show anything without some digging?

If you can dig, will you not find the trench anyway?

 

So what do you think about each method?

Is cost important?

Geoelectric (resistance) methods [resistivity]. This is the method? Or anything else, yet?

How would you conduct a resistivity survey to show the ditch?

Please help


These are the following three methods for the other two it is not possible

 

Gravimetry [density = density].

Seismic (refraction) measurements [propagation velocity of longitudinal seismic waves]

Geoelectric (resistance) methods [resistivity].

 

Please help

 

 

I don't see you putting much in.

 

Here is another hint, and the last one without some posted effort from you.

 

How does the resolution of a seismic survey vary with detector spacing?

  • Author

Has nothing to do with the detector spacing

 

So, right answers are Gravimetry and Geolelectric methods

Well I've wasted enough time on this one sided conversation.

 

If you have difficulty with English tell the next person who tries to help you before she starts.

Please, help me s solution that question...please


At monday must write test from that...please help

I have no idea what you are studying or at what level.

Geophysics is a college or university subject, not a school subject.

 

 

 

Here is an extract from Kearney & Brooks An Introduction to Geophysical Exploration.

 

We can discuss this list if you like, but only if you are prepared to answer questions, but as you can see, they have a different list of possibilities for your application.

 

You have not answered my question about cost.
