Magnetic surveys of archaeological sites can be influenced by the natural time variations of the Earth’s magnetic field, and to a lesser extent its spatial variations. The influence of the natural time variations could be especially problematic for single sensor surveys...

We exploited ERS-1/2 and ENVISAT Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) datasets of the Italian Extraordinary Plan for Environmental Remote Sensing (EPRS-E), to analyse ground motions over two Italian cultural heritage sites. The deformation patterns over the archaeo...

Besides their suitability for multi-temporal and spatial deformation analysis, the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) image archives acquired by space-borne radar sensors can be exploited to support archaeological investigations over huge sites, even those partially or tota...

This report describes a detailed scheme for the mapping and recording of artificial ground. It presents codes and descriptions that underpin the entries in the British Geological Survey stratigraphical lexicon

This report forms part of the Prehistoric Pottery Project, which is aimed at investigating by means of petrographic and electron microprobe analyses the production and distribution of later prehistoric granodiorite-tempered pottery from the East Midlands. Earlier petrog...

This report details the reasoning and methodology for the introduction of a revised computer-coding scheme for unlithified deposits, commonly also referred to as superficial deposits, unconsolidated deposits or engineering soils. These include clay, silt, sand, gravel, ...

Shallow ground disturbance creates a differential heat flux in the soil column due to a variation in the thermal properties between disturbed and undisturbed soils. When we observe above a canopy, the effect of vegetation growth on the thermal regime of the underlying s...

This report describes the occurrence, extraction and natural hazards related to Triassic gypsum in the Chellaston and Aston-on-Trent areas, south of Derby. A brief historical review of gypsum working from the Middle Ages onward is given. The stratigraphy of the gypsum a...
