In this course we will discuss geophysical methods based on the different fields of application, including archaeogeophysics, hydrogeophysics, environmental and agricultural geophysics, airborne geophysics and borehole geophysics. As an introduction, we will shortly be reviewing common methods used in exploration geophysics, including gravimetry, magnetism, electrical and electromagnetic methods, and seismics. Furthermore, more advanced and specialized methods will be introduced and discussed. However, a basic knowledge, understanding of the fudamental principles in Geophysics is a requirement to successfully finish this course. During the exercise/seminar we will apply the knowledge from the lectures to study, analyse and discuss selected literature examples of geophysical field studies related to the different fields of applied geophysics. Finally, the course will finish with an oral or written exam at the end of the semester depending on the number of students.
Requirement: A basic knowledge, understanding of the fudamental principles in Geophysics. Recommended: Successfull participation in any module introducing basic principles of Applied Geophysics (e.g., Geophysical Laboratory). Parallel participation in Applied Geophysical Methods I/II (Advanced Modules – Geophysics).
Oral or written exam at the end of the semester depending on the number of participants.
