Downloadable Notes

The Powerpoint presentation from class is adapted for this site, and there are several options. An online version can be followed from the home page. Versions can also be downloaded in .pdf format. The files are large because of the detailed images in them.

The first part in colour (2.9 Mb) is here.

The first part in grayscale, at 6 slides per page, (2.7 Mb) is here.

The second part in colour (1.6 Mb) is here.

The second part in grayscale, at 6 slides per page, (1.8 Mb) is here.

The third part in colour (600 kb) is here.

The third part in grayscale, at 6 slides per page, (600 kb) is here.

However, a password is needed to open the files. For the present that password is freely available if you would like to email me with your name, address, and interest; this will let me gauge whether further development of the notes is warranted.

TextBook References

There are no direct textbooks for this section. General background can be found in a number of geophysics texts. Examples:

• "Principles of Applied Geophysics" (Parasnis)
  • Many references in this presentation
• "Field Geophysics" (Milsom)
• "Introduction to Geophysical Exploration" (Keary & Brooks)
• "Applied Geophysics" (Telford and others)
  
• or any text in the same part of the Library!
  • DDC 622.15 or 551.15

An introduction to modern geological mapping, and more recent background, can be found in
AGSO Journal of Australian Geology & Geophysics, v17(2), 1997.
