Failures
( 50 Articles )
Although nobody likes to see a failure, especially a catastrophic one, it is important to learn whatever we can from them so that the geo-community does not make the same mistakes again.
Geoarchaeology is a fascinating field located at the convergence of two scientific disciplines, geology/engineering and archaeology. Aspects of this field include geophysical exploration such as ground penetrating radar, photogeology, magnetometer surveys, satellite image analysis and geographic information systems or GIS.
Geophysics involves various techniques to quantitatively study the surface and subsurface of the earth. These methods include seismic refraction, seismic reflection, ground penetrating radar (GPR), electrical resistivity, induced polarization (IP), TEM, gravity gradiometry, magnetotellurics (MT) and others.
Miscellaneous

Have some GeoNews that doesn't fit in another category? Here's the place. Try to keep it at least somewhat on topic.

If you have a geo-related press release, or you have come accross one somewhere on the web, you can post it in this category.
Rockman aka Randy Post is the Owner and Editor In Chief of GeoPrac.net. This category is where posts regarding the GeoPrac site itself will be made. It is also a place for Randy to blog about issues affecting his professional practice, current projects and occasionally more esoteric topics.
I flag tons of interesting news items over the course of a week. I usually like to summarize the article when I post about it and maybe add a photo or embed a video or something. But I don't have nearly enough time to post everything I find. So I'm starting a (roughly) weekly post I'll call my Weekend Catch-Up-Post or CUP for short. In these posts, I'll simply present a bulleted list of news items I didn't have time to write about. Enjoy!
Conferences
( 10 Articles )
This is the place for coverage of geotechnical conferences, geoconstruction conferences and conferences in related industries and disciplines such as engineering geology, earth retention, deep foundations and more.
