Abstract
Geophysical sounding and investigations provide an indirect view into the underground. Geophysical investigations collect data using instruments at the surface or placed in boreholes. Borehole geophysics and geophysical well logging can probe and research in cased and in uncased bores. In Chap. 13, we briefly present a selection of geophysical investigation methods.
