Shallow depth geophysical data from archaeological sites contain various levels and types of noise that hinters the valuable information of the subsurface architectural relics. Wavelet transform techniques were tested as a method for decomposition of the original geophysical data in order to eliminate the noise levels inherent to the geophysical measurements. In addition to the above, unsupervi...

Gas hydrates presented as form of segregated bodies have been observed on shallow subsurface sediments. However, most gas hydrate physics models describe that hydrates occur in pore space in deep subsurface sediment. A new model considers gas hydrate as segregated bodies to derive elastic properties of hydrates bearing sediments and gas hydrate saturation. The predicted elastic properties based...

Riparian buffers are a proven practice for removing NO from overland flow and shallow groundwater. However, in landscapes with artificial subsurface (tile) drainage, most of the subsurface flow leaving fields is passed through the buffers in drainage pipes, leaving little opportunity for NO removal. We investigated the feasibility of re-routing a fraction of field tile drainage as subsurface fl...
