Let’s continue with our eight-part series where we’ll be recommending some further reading for those of you who want to learn more about resistivity, induced polarization, and more in the realm of geophysics. The trio of suggestions that we’ve listed below cover geophysical inversion, induced polarization, and matrix computations. Reading any (or all) of these should help to broaden your knowledge and bolster your confidence going into your next geophysical survey.

And in case you missed them, here are the previous suggestions in this series:

Welcome back to our eight-part series where we’ll be recommending some further reading for those of you who want to learn more about resistivity, induced polarization, and more. We hope our suggestions so far have been helpful in broadening your understanding of these topics. And if not—well—the third time's the charm!

In case you missed them, here are the previous suggestions in this series:

Abstract:

Welcome to this eight-part series where we’ll be recommending some further reading for those of you who want to learn more about resistivity, induced polarization, and more. We’ve used the publications in this list time and time again—and we want to share that knowledge with you!

We're beyond excited to announce our innovative new system that will change the way that you do marine surveys! With our 3rd Generation SuperSting™ Marine System, you can now perform marine surveys easier and at least 30% faster. 

These new features are custom-built to handle the specific situations that happen on the water:

• The AGI Survey Planner

• Route Optimization

• Precise Guided Navigation

• Customizable Real-Time Data Plots

In our previous article, The 7 Most Common Signs of Sinkholes, we went over some visual cues to spot sinkholes before total collapse. Now, let’s get a little more hands-on and show you how you can actually test for sinkholes before they occur.

Well, it’s not every day that we get to use a headline like that—but it’s true! Last year in China, a customer of ours—China Geological Survey (CGS)—worked with The University of Electronic Science and Technology, and Laurel Technologies for an extraordinary project. The joint research team was tasked to conduct an underwater and shoreline geophysical exploration of the Shen Yin site in Jiangkou after a few artifacts were discovered by locals near the shores of a river.

So often, after someone asks "What is groundwater?", the next immediete question is "How do I find groundwater?". Well today, we're teaching you the best way we know how to find groundwater—Electrical Resistivity Imaging. First things first, we have to remember where groundwater can be found. As you know from our Groundwater Education Series, an aquifer is a natural underground reservoir of water that can be used as a water source.
