Environmental Geophysics

Environmental Geophysics is like taking an X-ray of the Earth. It uses various techniques to create a picture of what's beneath the ground without physically digging or drilling. Scientists use tools that measure differences in physical properties like magnetism, electricity, and sound waves to find different materials or to spot abnormalities like contamination or groundwater. Essentially, it reveals the unseen parts of our environment to help manage resources or solve problems related to land use and conservation.
