  1. 6. Integration of geology with geophysics : Case studies from Svalbard

    University essay from KTH/Hållbar utveckling, miljövetenskap och teknik

    Author : Sofia Rylander; Anna Sterley; [2022]
    Keywords : Gravity Measurements; Magnetic Measurements; Anomalies; Seismic; Fault Zones; Svalbard;

    Abstract : This is a study where new and old geophysical data together with information found in literature has been integrated to get a better understanding of the geological evolution of Svalbard. The purpose of the study is to acquire and integrate different geophysical data over the Central Spitsbergen Basin (CSB) and across the Billefjorden Fault Zone (BFZ). READ MORE

  3. 7. Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) As a Non-invasive Optimization Tool for the Exploration and Management of Raw Materials

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Aaron Josue Sediles Martinez; [2022]
    Keywords : drone exploration; UAVs; value proposition; entrepreneurship; raw materials; sustainability;

    Abstract : In the current context of the energy transition, it has been argued by researchers and authors that the demand for raw materials for the necessary green technologies can’t be met without the input of primary raw materials. These materials can only be supplied through the mining cycle: exploration, mining, and processing. READ MORE

  4. 8. THE MONASTERY HILL: GEOPHYSICAL METHODS FOR DESCRIBING ARCHAEOLOGY AND NEAR-SURFACE GEOLOGY IN LÖDÖSE, SW SWEDEN

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Tobias Möhl; Fredrik Andersson; [2021-09-21]
    Keywords : Near-surface geophysics; Ground-penetrating radar; Resistivity; Magnetic gradiometry; 3D modeling; Archaeology; Leached clay; Medieval monastery; Sweden;

    Abstract : Even though Sweden has been one of the leading countries in the development of nearsurface geophysics instrumentation and practices, geophysical surveys in archaeology are not commonly used in Sweden. However, it is becoming increasingly popular, especially the use of ground-penetrating radar and metal detectors. READ MORE

  5. 9. LÖDÖSEHUS: GEOPHYSICAL METHODS FOR DESCRIBING ARCHAEOLOGY AND NEAR-SURFACE GEOLOGY AT THE SITE OF A MEDIEVAL CASTLE IN LÖDÖSE, SW SWEDEN

    University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper
