Field Instrumentation for Undergraduate Education in Environmental and Engineering Geophysics

作为本系建立综合本科地球科学教育计划的一部分，本项目正在开发一个环境工程地球物理实地计划。这个实地项目为该机构四个不同部门的学生和亚利桑那州生物圈2号的学生提供了多学科、探究式、基于实地的地球物理经验。这些经验解决了当地和区域的环境、工程和地质问题。这个项目和其中编写的课程材料正在作为一个范例提供给其他地球科学系。该大学正在购买两台电导率仪（用于浅层和中深度应用），一台磁力计/梯度计，一台地震反射/折射系统，以及两台通用的Windows/Linux现场笔记本电脑，配有用于现场数据分析和初步处理的基本可视化软件。该设备完成了地球物理现场课程的仪器池。*

As part of the department's effort to build an integrated undergraduate earth science education program, this project is developing an environmental engineering geophysics field program. This field program provides students in four different departments at this institution and students at Biosphere 2, in Arizona, with multidisciplinary, inquiry-oriented, field-based geophysical experiences. These experiences address local and regional environmental, engineering, and geological problems. This program and the curricular materials developed in it are being made available to other earth science departments as a model. The university is purchasing two conductivity meters (for shallow and medium depth applications), a magnetometer/gradiometer, a seismic reflection/refraction system, and two generic Windows/Linux field laptops with basic visualization software for in-field data analysis and preliminary processing. This equipment completes the instrumentation pool for the geophysics field classes. *
