Excerpt from Integrated Seismic, Resistivity, and Geologic Studies of Glacial Deposits
A study integrating seismic, resistivity, and geologic meth ods was made of the glacial deposits in three areas in the northern half of Illinois. Employment of all three methods increased the te liability of the identification of materials and determination of thick ness of units by eliminating some of the problems encountered when a single method was used.
Resistivity values are a guide to the identification of, and depth to, low-velocity sand and gravel, and with these layers ao counted for, seismic refraction methods give more reliable bedrock depths Resistivity methods also aid in identifying the sequence and lithologic type of high-velocity drift materials. Depths to the base of high-velocity layers can be determined from resistivity curves, and bedrock depths can then be more accurately calculated from seismic refractions.

Verkäuferbewertung 4 von 5 Sternen
Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the use of seismic, resistivity, and geologic methods for studying glacial deposits in Illinois. The author integrates these methods to increase the accuracy of determining the thickness and identifying the lithologic variations of glacial deposits. The book discusses the limitations and uses of each method and provides guidelines for their integrated application in glacial drift studies. By combining seismic, resistivity, and geologic data, the author demonstrates how to overcome some of the problems encountered when using a single method and provides a more comprehensive understanding of glacial deposits. This book is a valuable resource for geologists, geophysicists, and engineers involved in the study and characterization of glacial deposits and groundwater resources in glaciated regions. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9780331009408_0
