Whether it is to understand concrete properties of roads, geologic materials for excavation, foundations or hazards, geophysical mapping of electrical, seismic, or magnetic properties can provide a greater level of confidence to your project. Rippability Analysis Rippability is the ease with which ...

Geological maps on Earth are planar representations of a territory showing the composition and the ages of rocks and deposits at its surface, and from which it is inferable its geological evolution as well as the related subsurface structure and lithology. On planetary bodies geological maps can no...
Environmental and water safety hazards The survival of a microorganism is an important factor for determining water contamination and the potential hazard this entails. It was possible to detectE. coliand somatic coliphages for at least two months, whileEnterococcusspp. was detected through the entire...
1.6. A geometrical basis for Himalayan seismic hazards We concluded earlier that, in a region of uniform geothermal gradient, the dip of the descending MHT controls the width of the interseismic decoupling zone, and that this in turn controls its capacity to store strain energy in the form of...
The latter authors subdivided the Neogene-Quaternary of the Egyptian Red Sea coastal plain between 24°50′ and 26° N (including the studied locations) based on the geological map of Aswan quadrangle 1: 500, 000; Egyptian geological survey of Egypt in 1978 from base to top into Gabal El ...
The Climate Hazards Group InfraRed Precipitation with Station data (CHIRPS) is a gridded precipitation dataset with a resolution of 0.05° ranging from 1981 to near present that has been developed for data sparse regions by combining a variety of station data, a multitude of satellite observations...
