Aerial Thermography in Archaeological Prospection: Applications & Processing
… thermography is one of the least utilized archaeological prospection methods, yet it has great potential for detecting anthropogenic anomalies. Thermal infrared radiation is absorbed and reemitted at varying rates by all objects on and within the ground depending upon their density, …

Large-Scale Archaeological Prospection of Early Modern Battlefields: Geophysical Surveys at the Battlefield of Waterloo
… the role of large-scale minimally-invasive prospection methods for the archaeological investigation of early modern battlefields. This is explored using the Napoleonic battlefield of Waterloo, Belgium (1815) as a case study. Methodological focus is on the use of near- surface geophysical …

Developing a methodology for archaeological prospection on alluvial floodplains with a case study involving the Winckley Lowes barrow sequence, Lancashire.
… develop a balanced methodology for non-intrusive archaeological prospection on dynamic alluvial floodplains. A combination of LiDAR, gradiometry, field-walking and topographic surveying are employed on floodplains on the confluence of the Rivers Ribble, Hodder and Calder near Clitheroe, …

Archaeological remote sensing: visualisation and analysis of grass-dominated environments using airborne laser scanning and digital spectral data
The use of airborne remote sensing data for archaeological prospection is not a novel concept, but it is one that has been brought to the forefront of current work in the discipline of landscape archaeology by the increasing availability and application of airborne laser scanning data (ALS). It is …

Historic settlement on Unst, Shetland. An holistic study of abandoned settlements on Unst, Shetland utilising historical archaeology and prospection approaches
… argued to be static, which is not borne out in archaeological evidence. Issues associated with historic Shetland settlement models were identified to parallel traditional views of Scottish highland rural settlement, which cast the highland society as ahistoric and unchanging. Historical, …

The Schlumberger Array in geophysical prospection for archaeology.
… resistance arrays to be used to detect buried archaeological features. The early work used fixed probes and widely spaced traverses. Recent simulation work, ýhowever, suggested that the array should give improved resolution and depth penetration over the Twin-Probe array. This thesis is an …
