Basin-and-range geothermal resources are typically fault-controlled, deep-circulation systems. They commonly occur beneath thick sequences of Tertiary and Quaternary basin-fill sediments which hinder understanding of fault geometries and faulting patterns. Recent experience at Dixie Valley and survey of the literature for other systems suggest a low-cost and rapid exploration strategy for estab...

The determination of groundwater potentiality is one the most significant challenges in hydro-geophysical research, especially arid areas with limited water resources. A geophysical survey wa...

The correct positioning of deep wells to monitor groundwater and entrained contaminants is greatly aided by using remote sensing methods. The geologic setting at the Anniston Army Depot (ANAD) consists of a sequence of fractured dolostones and clastic rocks that have been thrust-faulted, creating a highly complex and heterogeneous aquifer. The drilling of deep bedrock groundwater monitoring wel...

A geothermal reservoir causes inhomogeneity in the physical properties of the subsurface geology due to the high changes in temperature. These physical properties can be ob‐ served by means of varying anomalies from geophysical observations from the surface. These physical properties include electrical conductivity, rock density, magnetic suscepti‐ bility, rock elasticity, and, finally, the tem...
