An Introduction to Applied and Environmental Geophysics, 2 nd
Edition, describes the rapidly developing field of near-surface
geophysics. The book covers a range of applications including
mineral, hydrocarbon and groundwater exploration, and emphasises
the use of geophysics in civil engineering and in environmental
investigations. Following on from the international popularity of
the first edition, this new, revised, and much expanded edition
contains additional case histories, and descriptions of geophysical
techniques not previously included in such textbooks. The level of
mathematics and physics is deliberately kept to a minimum but is
described qualitatively within the text. Relevant mathematical
expressions are separated into boxes to supplement the text. The
book is profusely illustrated with many figures, photographs and
line drawings, many never previously published. Key source
literature is provided in an extensive reference section; a list of
web addresses for key organisations is also given in an appendix as
a valuable additional resource. Covers new techniques such as
Magnetic Resonance Sounding, Controlled- Source EM, shear-wave
seismic refraction, and airborne gravity and EM techniques Now
includes radioactivity surveying and more discussions of down-hole
geophysical methods; hydrographic and Sub-Bottom Profiling
surveying; and UneXploded Ordnance detection Expanded to include
more forensic, archaeological, glaciological, agricultural and
bio-geophysical applications Includes more information on
physio-chemical properties of geological, engineering and
environmental materials Takes a fully global approach Companion

textbook for undergraduates as well as an ideal reference for
industry professionals The second edition is ideal for students
wanting a broad introduction to the subject and is also designed
for practising civil and geotechnical engineers, geologists,
archaeologists and environmental scientists who need an overview of
modern geophysical methods relevant to their discipline. While the
first edition was the first textbook to provide such a
comprehensive coverage of environmental geophysics, the second
edition is even more far ranging in terms of techniques,
applications and case histories.
