Geoscience is evolvingDiscover how geoscience professionals are overcoming obstacles in mining, energy, civil engineering, and environmental industries with technology and innovation.

Civil infrastructure projects, especially road and rail links, often have mountains to contend with, and engineers may fervently wish they just weren’t there. In Shanghai,

It’s been called the world’s biggest scientific experiment: a massive reactor that could finally demonstrate a ‘working’ version of fusion power, and in theory end

Groundwater is the source for around half the world’s drinking water. Irrigation and agriculture are even more reliant on it. Extraction has increased – that

Last Summer, the second largest diamond ever discovered was lifted gingerly from the depths of the Karowe mine in Botswana, owned by Canadian firm Lucara

Introduction The volumetric water content function, also known as the soil-water characteristic curve or water retention curve, can be determined using various laboratory methods. If

Introduction In anticipation of the construction of a new airport in Bangkok, Thailand, full-scale test embankments were constructed on the soft clay at the site

Introduction The preservation of the permafrost is often imperative to protect such structures as roads, railways, and runway embankments. Man-made structures generally alter the surface

Introduction Artificial soil freezing is used in many engineering projects to excavate and construct mine shafts, tunnels, or other underground structures through water bearing, often
