Abstract
Geotechnical and environmental geophysics presents a selection of papers submitted in response to an announcement published in Geophysics (January 1988) and The Leading Edge (February 1988). “A new SEG publication, Environmental Geophysics, Stanley H. Ward, Editor, has been proposed for 1988. The objective is to provide the specialist and nonspecialist a state-of-the-art book on the correct theory for and case histories of geophysics applied to environmental problems including groundwater delineation, evaluation and protection, landfills, earth and water contamination, chemical waste disposal, nuclear waste disposal, earthquake risk evaluation, radon emanations, landslides, land subsidence, crop-land salinization, and general geotechnical applications such as dams and reservoirs, tunnels and cavities, roads, foundations, rippability, permafrost, pile integrity testing, and archaeological site delineation. Not all the subjects listed will necessarily be included in the proposed book. Timely publication of the most relevant and available articles is key to the success of the volume. A number of tutorial articles will be entertained.”This publication has 0 references indexed in Scilit:
