Here we analyse ambient noise (AN) data generated during drilling of exploration boreholes and recorded using a dense array deployed over one of the numerous shallow iron-ore mineralisation targets in the Pilbara region ...

With the increasing availability of big geospatial data (e.g., multi-spectral satellite imagery) and access to platforms that support multi-temporal analyses (e.g., cloud-based computing, Geographical Information Systems, ...

Land Use Land Cover (LULC) changes analysis is one of the most useful methodologies to understand how the land was used in the past years, what types of detections are to be expected in the future, as well as the driving ...

The Paleoproterozoic suture between Sarmatia and Fennoscandia (SFS), two major components of the East European Craton, extends SW-ward from Russia through Belarus to SE Poland. The exact character of this suture remains ...

Seven years have passed since the last brief outline of the editorial output of the Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, was published (Dziembowska and Wernik 2014); the present text is a continuation and ...

Land use land cover (LULC) changes are highly pronounced in African countries, as they are characterized by an agriculture-based economy and a rapidly growing population. Understanding how land use/cover changes (LULCC) ...

Ultraslow spreading ridges form the slowest divergent plate boundaries and exhibit distinct spreading processes in volcanically active magmatic sections and intervening amagmatic sections. Local seismicity studies of ...

The wide-angle reflection and refraction (WARR) TTZ-South transect carried out in 2018 crosses the SW region of Ukraine and the SE region of Poland. The TTZ-South profile targeted the structure of the Earth’s crust and ...

In this work we present an analysis of selected atmospheric electricity parameters, measured at the Geophysical Observatory in S´ wider (near Warsaw, Poland), in a review of the major events that resulted in the release ...

The paper presents information about the seismic experiment “AniMaLS” which aims to provide a new insight into the crust and upper mantle structure beneath the Polish Sudetes (NE margin of the Variscan orogen). The seismic ...

The nature of the lower crust and the crust-mantle transition is fundamental to Earth sciences. Transformation of lower crustal rocks into eclogite facies is usually expected to result in lower crustal delamination. Here ...

Downhole microseismic monitoring is a widely used tool for the assessment of hydraulic fracturing job effectiveness. During the process of fluid injection into the reservoir, new fractures develop due to the induced ...

This publication contains basic information on geomagnetic observations carried out in 2019 in three Polish geophysical observatories: Belsk, Hel, and Hornsund. IAGA codes are respectively: BEL, HLP, and HRN. All these ...

The aim of the study was to identify the snow cover distribution in the southern Spitsbergen tundra environment and to quantify its relationship with the topography and land cover. This was achieved by correlating ...

This Monograph outlines the recent achievements of the Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, focusing on the main strategic areas: Geosystem Processes, Earth Structure and Georesources, Anthropogenic and ...

Excavation damaged zone (EDZ) is a fractured rock mass in the vicinity of the roadway. Knowing its elastic properties, such as seismic velocity, is crucial for the safety of underground mining. However, the seismic wavefield's ...

This Monograph, the first one in a series of yearly outlines on the main achievements of the Institute of Geophysics, Polish Academy of Sciences, is a reviewed and edited version of the Annual Report 2018. It provides ...
