Geoscience: Special Issue on Electromagnetic (EM) methods
Call for papers by the 25th September, 2021 for Geoscience special issue with guest editors Prof. Dr. Bülent Tezkan, Dr. Pritam Yogeshwar and Dr. Amir Haroon
Applied Geophysics
We develop and use ground-based, marine and airborne geophysical techniques, especially for electromagnetic exploration to derive physical properties of the earths subsurface from few meters depth down to several kilometers. Our areas of applications cover a wide range such as the search for groundwater, contamination problems, mineral resources and hydrocarbon exploration, geothermal research and archeological prospection as well as general geological studies
What is applied geophysics about?
Key Research Areas & Methods
- New geophysical techniques and measurement platforms
- Environmental and engineering problems
- Earth resource exploration
- Groundwater exploration
- Electrical and Electromagnetic methods
- Modeling & inversion
- Data processing
Projects
Various national and international projects cover a wide range of geophysical techniques for shallow and deep subsurface exploration, technical and numerical developments for improved data interpretation.
