Optimal location of additional exploratory drillholes using afuzzy-artificial bee colony algorithm
In most research studies, the problem of locating additional drillhole is simplified, and the ore body is considered as a 2d object. In this study,...

O
This is a method of programming based around the concept of an object. A software object stores its states, which may include data, as fields... -
On inversion of the second- and third-order gravitational tensors by Stokes’ integral formula for a regional gravity recovery
A regional recovery of the Earth’s gravity field from satellite observables has become particularly important in various geoscience studies in order...

D
Introduced by the American geologist, Chester Robert Pelto (1915–1984) (Pelto 1954), the D function expresses the relationship between the relative... -
Recent Developments in Closed-Loop Approaches for Real-Time Mining and Petroleum Extraction
Advanced data acquisition and process modelling technology provide ‘real-time’ data and decision support capacity for different aspects of the...

S
A computer programming language for performing customised data analysis, originally developed as freeware by Doug Bates, Rick Becker, John Chambers,... -
Robustness of statistical algorithms for location of microseismic sources based on surface array data
Here, we present a statistical simulation study of several array data processing techniques used for the location of sources of elastic waves. The...

Signal Processing
We examine some methods commonly used for analyzing marine bioacoustic recordings. Filtering techniques are used to prevent aliasing, to remove... -
Spatio-Temporal Changes in Potential Evaporation Based on Entropy Across the Wei River Basin
The distribution of potential evaporation is highly unstable due to complex human activities and climate changes. Therefore, it is of great...

Exact Conditioning of Gaussian Fields on Wavelet Coefficients
A new approach is presented to ensure exact conditioning of Gaussian fields on wavelet decomposition coefficients and hard data. The approach uses a...

Spatio-Temporal Analysis of Eearthquake Occurrences Using a Multiresolution Approach
Catalogs of earthquake occurrences are conveniently modeled as spatial-temporal marked point processes. The widely used Epidemic-Type Aftershock... -
Innovative Techniques for the Detection and Characterization of the Kinematics of Slow-Moving Landslides
Remote sensing has been proven useful for landslide studies. However, conventional remote sensing techniques based on aerial photographs and optical... -
Practical Considerations for Selection of Representative Elementary Volumes for Fluid Permeability in Fibrous Porous Media
We investigate the lower bound of the area of a square-shaped representative elementary volume (REV) for the permeability tensor for transverse...

Visibility graph analysis of geophysical time series: Potentials and possible pitfalls
Recently, complex network approaches to time series analysis have been developed and successfully applied to geophysical records. In this paper, the...

Map** Heavy Metal Content in Soils with Multi-Kernel SVR and LiDAR Derived Data
Support vector regression (SVR) is a powerful machine learning technique in the framework of the statistical learning theory; while Kriging is a... -
Introduction to Seismic Electric Signals
In the early 1980s, Varotsos and Alexopoulos showed that when the pressure (stress) on an ionic solid reaches a critical value, a cooperative... -
Some Real Problems and Their Solutions
Obviously, it is not possible to discuss all the real problems in this one book, but we have included a range of practical problems that should be of... -
Analysis of Shallow and Deep Earthquake Doublets in the Fiji-Tonga-Kermadec Region
For the Fiji-Tonga-Kermadec area and for the period from January 1977 to July 2003, the Harvard CMT catalogue lists 1022 shallow, 410 intermediate...

Classical parameter estimation
In this chapter, we discuss methods for formulating a suitable geostatistical model and estimating its parameters. We use the description “classical”...
