Refraction microtremor — (ReMi) is a surface performed geophysical survey developed by Dr. John Louie (and others) based on previously existing principles of evaluating surface waves and in particular Rayleigh waves. Since Rayleigh waves are dispersive, the propagating… … Wikipedia
Seismic source — This article is about artificial seismic sources. For natural seismic sources, see Earthquake, Volcano, and related articles. A seismic source generates controlled seismic energy that is used in both reflection and refraction seismic surveys. A… … Wikipedia
seismic survey — method of investigating subterranean structure, particularly as related to exploration for petroleum, natural gas, and mineral deposits (mineral deposit). The technique is based on determinations of the time interval that elapses between… … Universalium

Excavatability — The excavatability of an earth (rock and regolith) material is a measure of the material to be excavated (dug) with conventional excavation equipment such as a bulldozer with rippers, backhoe, scraper and other grading equipment. Materials that… … Wikipedia
Outline of geophysics — Seismic velocities and boundaries in the interior of the Earth sampled by seismic waves. The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to geophysics: Geophysics – the physics of the Earth and its environment in space; also … Wikipedia
Near-surface geophysics — is the use of geophysical methods to investigate small scale features in the shallow (tens of meters) subsurface. It is closely related to applied geophysics or exploration geophysics. Methods used include seismic refraction and reflection,… … Wikipedia
Earth exploration — Introduction the investigation of the surface of the Earth and of its interior. By the beginning of the 20th century most of the Earth s surface had been explored, at least superficially, except for the Arctic and Antarctic regions. Today the… … Universalium
