Principles and Methods of Magnetic Exploration

Lecturers: Sebastian Uhlemann

Content:

1. Introduction to non-seismic exploration targets – environmental, archaeological, hydrological, engineering problems
2. Recap of non-seismic exploration methods (Gravimetry, Magnetics, ERT, EM, GPR)
3. Soil- and petrophysical properties
4. Efficient survey design, consideration of site constraints
5. Data acquisition and filtering strategies of ERT data
6. Modelling and inversion of ERT data with ResIPy
7. Filtering and processing strategies of EM data with Aarhus Workbench
8. Modelling and inversion of EM data
9. Interpretation of ERT and EM data
10. Ground magnetic data processing with Geosoft Oasis Montaj
11. Further processing, visualization, and interpretation of magnetic data
12. Introduction to excursion targets, excursion survey design
13. Applications of non-seismic surveying in mineral and groundwater exploration
14. Applications in archaeology and engineering geology


Competences:

- Understand the opportunities and limitations of non-seismic surveying techniques for hydrological, environmental, archaeological, and mineral exploration targets
- Design a field survey responding to a given problem
- Process, visualize, analyze, evaluate and report non-seismic survey datasets with competent use of state-of-the-art processing and modelling techniques and software packages
