Geol 420 Applied Geophysics Weekend (Fall 2017)

Swanton Pacific Ranch

During the weekend of November 11-12 the applied geophysics class collected seismic refraction, electrical (VES, ERT, IP), and H/V data over the aquifer at Swanton Pacific Ranch. The goal was to characterize the structure of the aquifer by assessing variations in depth and composition.

Here are some fun photos of the event:
