Description
Geophysical methods are used to determine the structure and composition of Earth's subsurface and find applications in mineral exploration, geohazard identification, environmental remediation, civil engineering, and in increasing our understanding of our planet. This course covers the theory and application of potential field methods (gravity and magnetics) and electromagnetic methods in geophysics. Topics covered include procedures for data acquisition, data processing, modeling and interpretation. These topics are covered at a more advanced level than in GEOL 334.
Prerequisite(s): GEOL 334.3 and GEOL 335.3
Note: Students may have credit for only two of GEOL 480.3, GEOL 481.3, or GEOL 482.3.
