Marine
Geophysics

Marine Geophysics describes a broad range of geophysical methods that are applied in marine environments or in lakes, canals, and rivers. 

 

Applications include:

• Mapping the top of rock beneath water-covered areas.

• Assessing the dredgeability (hardness) for dredging in harbors and waterways.

• Mapping faults and geologic structure.

• Mapping geologic hazards.

• Assessing geotechnical parameters for bridges and dams.
