Rezensionen

From the reviews: "Groundwater Geophysics demonstrates the use of geophysics for the detection and delineation of groundwater resources. ... This book covers a lot of material in geophysics and does a pretty good job of it. Besides serving as a reference book, I could see this book being used as a textbook for a groundwater geophysics course. ... The index at the end of the book is extensive ... . I think this book would be a good addition to the bookshelf of a geophysicist ... ." (David C. Bartel, The Leading Edge, January, 2007)
