441 Environmental Geophysics (3)
Fundamental theory and near-surface applications of the geophysical methods;
(1) seismic refraction, (2) seismic reflection, (3) gravity, and (4) magnetics.
Emphasis will be placed on the use of these methods in environmental and
engineering investigations, addressing such issues as water resources,
contaminant transport, geotechnical properties and archaeological protection.
Course will include a field component illustrating application of selected
techniques to local environmental problem. Prerequisites: Permission of
