Explore the numerous geophysical technologies available and learn how to select which is appropriate for your project. Whether you're a ground water manager, consulting hydrogeologist, or engineer, this half-day workshop provides the background necessary for selecting appropriate geophysical technologies and interpreting borehole geophysical data for optimizing well design, improving conceptual model development, characterizing contaminated site complexity, and characterizing fractured media. Learn how these technologies are regularly used as the foundation for ground water resource evaluation, aquifer storage and recovery design, mine water management, environmental site characterization, regional ground water monitoring, geotechnical analysis, and sea water intrusion assessment. Focusing on introducing the physical principles of more than a dozen different logging technologies and their respective limitations and applications, this workshop also gives you the opportunity to participate in class exercises that challenge you to design appropriate logging suites to meet particular needs. Interpreting actual data to solve specific problems and answer complex questions in an integrated framework is incorporated in the exercises.
