This exercise is designed for undergraduate students as an introduction to geological mapping techniques making use of Google Earth. The goal of this exercise is that students produce a geological map and a profile using a real-world example, including 3D information. We selected the Jebel Madar ...
Geophysical exploration is based on the use of differences in a number of physical properties between bodies of useful minerals and the enclosing rock. Differences in elasticity, magnetism, electrical conductivity, density, and radioactivity are tested. Airplanes, helicopters, and artificial satellites are...
Thegeological structurecontrols the land and sea distribution pattern, coast shape, and evolution. Since the Cenozoic, the tectonic pattern of the Chinese mainland reflects the interaction between the Pacific–Philippines, India, and theEurasian plate, which forms the overall shape of the Chinese coast...

A new map of the Kunene Complex, based on our interpretation of processed remote sensing data and ground-truthing. The spatial distribution of the Karoo and Damara supergroups in Namibia (included here in the post-KC capping units) is from the Geological Survey of Namibia 1:250, 000 map. ...
Essential fundamental principles of data acquisition in diverse survey modes are also addressed. Furthermore, the review emphasizes case studies from Gujarat, Western India, illustrating the application of GPR in subsurface investigations of sedimentary structures, active fault delineation, and liquefaction ...
volcanoes, mineralization, and oil accumulation) that occurred during the evolution of the earth is essential not only for understanding the “abrupt changes in the evolution of the earth”, but also for an in-depth understanding of the co-evolution of material-life-environment of the livable ear...
Notable here were theoretical studies by Archdeacon JH Pratt in India (Pratt, 1855, 1859) and by the Astronomer Royal, Airy (1855), based on the deflection of the vertical in India that had been detected by the great geodetic surveys. Contractionism also suffered in the 1890s when ...
Much information in these marginal settings, both terrestrial and marine, is provided by sediment stratigraphic sequences, exposed in sections and seismically imaged; 3D seismic datasets are increasingly providing data on the spatial dimensions and distribution of buried ice-marginal landforms on palaeo-...
