geophysical equipment

Geophysical equipment refers to tools used by scientists to explore and analyze the Earth's subsurface without digging it up. These devices measure physical properties like magnetic fields, electrical conductivity, or seismic waves to locate minerals, groundwater, or archaeological features. For example, magnetometers detect variations in the Earth's magnetic field, while seismic equipment measures how seismic waves travel through different layers of soil and rock. This technology helps us understand underground structures safely and efficiently, supporting activities like exploration, environmental assessment, and natural hazard monitoring.
