Geophysical applications of radar interferometry to measure changes in the Earth's surface have exploded in the early 1990s. This new geodetic technique calculates the interference pattern caused by the difference in phase between two images acquired by a spaceborne synthetic aperture radar at two distinct times. The resulting interferogram is a contour map of the change in distance between the...

We describe a multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary method to analyse the causes of differential macroseismic effects caused by an earthquake in a historical town. We illustrate the method with a case study based on analysing the damage caused by the 1930 Irpinia earthquake (Me=6.7) in Melfi, a town in southern Italy. A damage pattern map was already available for this site. To understand the...

various geological units in an area often exhibit different magnetic properties. due to this distinction in magnetic properties of the geological units, a correlation between the type of a geological unit and its magnetic response can be established. to determine the lateral and vertical extents of geological units from the magnetic data in a survey area, a number of filters for processing magn...

Geophysicists at the Geological Survey of South Australia are pressing forward in their task to release all mineral geophysical surveys public domain via Jetstream tool available on SARI...

Conservationists have proposed methods for adapting to climate change that assume species distributions are primarily explained by climate variables. The key idea is to use the understanding of species-climate relationships to map corridors and to identify regions of faunal stability or high species turnover. An alternative approach is to adopt an evolutionary timescale and ask ultimately what ...
