Earth and Ocean Sciences

Are your interested in …• Oil/gas or mineral exploration?• Environmental or geotechnical problems?• Using geophysical survey data to recover 3D images of the Earth's interior?

In EOSC 454 you will learn how to use gravity, magnetic and electromagnetic data to help answer applied problems about the Earth’s subsurface.

Course Description- Using geophysics to characterize the Earth's subsurface for resource exploration, engineering, environmental, and other tasks. - Data acquisition, processing, inversion, and interpretation of individual and multiple surveys, including electrical, electromagnetic, seismic, gravity and magnetic methods. - Working with real data for mineral exploration, environmental and UXO (Unexploded Ordnace) detection and characterization.
