GPR wavefield phenomena in the presence of boreholes and permittivity gradients

Ground penetrating radar (GPR) data has proven to be a powerful tool for non-invasively estimating the electrical properties of the shallow subsurface. Petrophysical relationships allow them to be converted into hydrological parameters such as soil water content (SWC) and porosity. In the presence of thin layers, complex wave phenomena can occur...

Time-lapse GPR full-waveform inversion to monitor heat tracers at the Krauthausen test site

Understanding solute and heat transport processes in aquifers is crucial for monitoring and protecting the groundwater critical zone. Crosshole ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a useful method for enhancing transport characterization in aquifers. Particularly, GPR full-waveform inversion (FWI) can provide subsurface images with resolution at...
