The Medieval Borderland: Geophysical Analysis of a Later Medieval Deserted Settlement and Cultural Landscape from Western Ireland
<p>This thesis investigates the archaeological remnants of an early 14th century settlement at Ballintober, Roscommon County, Ireland. An innovative methodology combining ground-penetrating radar, magnetic gradiometry, and archaeological excavations is utilized to reconstruct the medieval built …

Exploring Overbank Sediment Deposition Variation in Heavily Modified Floodplains of the Lower Mississippi River: A Sedimentological and Geophysical Analysis
<p>Since the 1930s, the Lower Mississippi River (LMR) has experienced large-scale modifications to the channel profile and surrounding floodplains through dams, dikes, revetments, dredging, and channel cutoffs. Although these changes have improved navigation and reduced flood risk, unanticipated …

Biogeophysical approaches to monitoring contaminated and restored sites
This thesis is focused οn biogeophysical approaches sensitive to biogeochemical transformations to monitoring contaminated and degraded sites. These approaches are of interest as they have low cost, inexpensive, non-intrusive attributes – making them good candidates as sustainable monitoring tools. …

Assessing Dynamic Seabed Change on the Scottish Continental Shelf
… of sediment forced by the hydrodynamic regime. Geophysical analysis of dune morpho dynamics on the Scottish continental shelf is essential to facilitate the predicted expansion of offshore renewables in this area. This thesis therefore aims to investigate dune mobility on the Scottish …

An investigation as to the suitability and effectiveness of geophysical survey techniques as a tool to aid archaeological interpretation of upland sites within the area of south east Wales
Geophysical survey as a tool to aid archaeological interpretation has been shown to be of varied usefulness across the differing site morphology and underlying geology of Wales. Its uptake has also varied greatly between regions with bias often existing towards certain types of site or particular …

Multistation Methods for Geotechnical Characterization using Surface Waves
… characterization, of whose the SASW (Spectral Analysis of Surface Waves) method is by far the most well-known in geotechnical engineering. The research has been mainly focused on the application of multistation methods, compared with the classical two-station approach typical of the SASW …
