Gowan, Joshua Smith (2012-07-16)Many scientific studies have been conducted on the Cretaceous-Paleogene boundary (KTB) in the Gulf coast region and, in particular, the Brazos River section in Falls County, Texas. Despite this, there remains much to be ...

Udphuay, Suwimon (2010-01-14)Pointe du Hoc overlooking the English Channel in Normandy, France was host to one of the most important military engagements of World War II. While the site is a valuable historic cultural resource, it is vulnerable to ...
-
Lau, Ryan (Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)Relatively little is known about marine controlled-source electromagnetic surveys (MCSEM) used to detect hydrocarbon reservoirs. Typical MCSEM require the use of inversion to generate a model of the subsurface. We utilize ...
-
Desmet, Timothy Scott (2016-06-03)This dissertation presents advanced methods in data processing, statistical analyses, integration, and visualization of archaeogeophysical data to increase the accuracy of archaeological remote sensing interpretation and ...
-
Park, Eungyu (Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This dissertation is composed of three parts of major contributions. In Chapter II, we discuss analytical study of contaminant transport from a finite source in a finite-thickness aquifer. This chapter provides analytical ...
-
Vuong, Au K (2014-05-05)Shatsky Rise, located in the northwest Pacific Ocean, is one of the largest oceanic plateaus. The origin and evolution of the oceanic plateaus are unclear because these features are remote and poorly imaged with geophysical ...
-
Erez, Ilana (Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)Modern seismic imaging tools for oil and gas exploration and production (E&P) assume that seismic data contain responses only of waves that bounce (e.g., reflect, diffract) only once at each interface in the subsurface. ...
-
Dickins, David (2009-06-02)The ability of marine controlled-source electromagnetic (MCSEM) methods to help image electrical conductivity contrasts below the Earth’s surface makes them useful for both initial reconnaissance surveying for hydrocarbons ...

Lee, Kyoung-Jin (Texas A&M University, 2006-08-16)Understanding and modeling seismic wave propagation is important in regional and exploration seismology. Ray tracing is a powerful and popular method for this purpose. Wavefront construction (WFC) method handles wavefronts ...
-
Chen, Bo (2012-10-19)The wavefront construction (WFC) method is an effective tool to compute seismic ray fields and has wide applications. This paper applies the WFC method to a heterogeneous earth model represented as a 3-D grid instead of a ...

Velímský, Jakub; Martinec, Zdeněk; Everett, Mark E. (Geophysical Journal International, 2006)
-
Arjwech, Rungroj (2012-02-14)Unknown bridge foundations pose a significant safety risk due to stream scour and erosion. Records from older structures may be non-existent, incomplete, or incorrect. Nondestructive and inexpensive geophysical methods ...
-
Pierce, Carl J. (2010-10-12)Remediation of unexploded ordnance (UXO) and prioritization of excavation procedures for archaeological artifacts using electromagnetic (EM) induction are studied in this dissertation. Lowering of the false alarm rates ...
-
Pertermann, Dana Lee (2012-10-19)Conflict Event theory has the potential to change how archaeologists investigate battlefield sites. As a theoretical paradigm, eventful archaeology allows us to give agency to social-structure changing events, going beyond ...
-
Benavides Iglesias, Alfonso (Texas A&M University, 2007-09-17)The response of geological materials at the scale of meters and the response of buried targets of different shapes and sizes using controlled-source electromagnetic induction (CSEM) is investigated. This dissertation focuses ...
-
Decker, Kathryn T. (2010-07-14)The Edwards aquifer lies in the structurally complex Balcones fault zone and supplies water to the growing city of San Antonio. To ensure that future demands for water are met, the hydrological and geophysical properties ...
-
Karsilayan, Nur (2011-08-08)A new full-wave surface impedance integral equation method is presented for three-dimensional arbitrary-shaped interconnect parasitic extraction in layered media. Various new ways of applying voltage and current excitations ...
-
Sassen, Douglas Spencer (2011-02-22)The presence of fractures, joints and karst features within rock strongly influence the hydraulic and mechanical behavior of a rock mass, and there is a strong desire to characterize these features in a noninvasive manner, ...
-
Save, Neelambari R (Texas A&M University, 2006-04-12)The goal of this research project is to identify the efficacy of the ground penetrating radar (GPR) technique in locating underground coal mine related subsidence features at Malakoff and Bastrop, Texas. The work at Malakoff ...
