Protecting Populations Through Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) Detection
Unexploded ordnance (UXO) represents a distinguished threat in many war-torn countries. Despite progress at the turn of the century, including promises to discontinue anti-personnel mines
New value from old data shows promise for geothermal exploration in the Netherlands
Making the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy, the Netherlands is promoting development of geothermal sources. Dutch consumers currently depend heavily on natural gas

Using magnetic gradient arrays for marine UXO surveys
Collecting and using magnetic gradient data for locating ferrous targets such as unexploded ordnance (UXO) or explosive remnants of war (ERW) in marine environments can
Geophysical techniques identify fresh water for refugees
Geophysicist Paul Bauman was teaching a short course on finding groundwater sources at the UN’s Kakuma refugee camp in Kenya when he realized his skills could be
Aeromagnetic data helps to assess earthquake potential
As any earth scientist knows, earthquakes are notoriously difficult to predict. It’s clear to most other people too—we’ve all witnessed the devastating effects of earthquakes
MVI excels at identifying copper porphyry-related intrusives
To verify the potential for Magnetization Vector Inversion (MVI) to identify deep intrusives related to copper porphyry systems, veteran copper explorer Carl Windels has compiled several North
Gamma ray spectrometry proves it worth as a mapping tool in granite-rich terrain
In areas with limited accessibility and/or a scarcity of outcrop, airborne geophysical techniques can sometimes be used to map geology. Gamma-ray spectrometry, for instance, works
