Bøker i Methods in Geochemistry and Geophysics-serien

Part of the series "Acoustic and Elastic Wave Fields in Geophysics", this volume talks about propagation of plane, spherical and cylindrical elastic waves in different media including isotropic and transversely isotropic solids, liquid-solid models, and media with cylindrical inclusions (boreholes).

Provides an introduction to the theory of gravity which is used as the basis for developing applications in exploration and geodesy. This book offers a survey of gravity instrumentation, with emphasis on the theory of underlying these instruments.

Principles of Electromagnetic Methods in Surface Geophysics contains information about the theory of electromagnetic fields in a conducting media. It describes the theoretical and physical principles of the main geophysical methods using electromagnetic fields, including frequency and transient soundings, electromagnetic profiling, and magnetotelluric soundings. Special attention is paid to models and signal processing methods used in modern exploration geophysics for groundwater, mineral and hydrocarbon exploration.

Introduces reader to the world of inductive well logging - a method for surveying electrical conductivity of rocks surrounding a borehole. This book emphasises on developing a theory of inductive logging and on understanding logging tools basic physics. It covers topics that play an important role in design and interpretation of tools readings.

Dedicated to propagation of linear plane, spherical and cylindrical acoustic waves in different media. This book contains chapters that include principles of geometric acoustic in plane wave approximation. It deals with dynamic properties of wave fields. It contains several examples related to shadow zones and caustics.

Based on lectures given in the First Russian School-Seminar on electromagnetic soundings of the Earth held in Moscow on 15th November, 2003, this book provides scientists and technologists with the achievements in theory, techniques and practical applications of the methods of electromagnetic sounding.

Covers the physical and mathematical principles of electric methods in applied geophysics.
