This practical volume applies geophysical techniques tohazardous waste site investigations, highway bridge foundations,and water quality.

Seven peer-reviewed papers in a section on Surface Geophysicsand Borehole Geophysics discuss:

• in situ soil testing

• measurement of engineering properties in rocks andsediments

• earthquake/seismic sensitivity of soils

• water quality monitoring

• and site characterization for hazardous waste studies.

For hydrologists, hydrogeologists, civil engineers, and soiltest engineers working in site characterization, constructionfoundation, or water supply areas.
