Formation and significance of black pebbles from the ota limestone (Upper Jurassic, Portugal)
1987
Black pebbles are a characteristic facies element of the Upper Jurassic Ota carbonate bank (Portugal). They occur both scattered or concentrated in two horizons, the upper of which is very widespread and may serve as a lithostratigraphic correlation level.
Advances in microgeophysics for engineering and cultural heritage
2009
A large number of unconventional investigations have been implemented, tested, and validated in the field of microgeophysics, with the aim being to solve specific diagnostic and/or monitoring problems regarding civil engineering and cultural heritage studies. The investigations were carried out using different tomographic 2D and 3D approaches as well as different energy sources, namely sonic, ultrasonic and electromagnetic (radar) waves, electric potential fields, and infrared thermography. Many efforts have been made to modify instruments and procedures in order to improve the resolution of the surveys as well as to greatly reduce the time of the measurements without any loss of informatio…
