The aim of the course is to give a deep insight of the main methods of applied geophysics for the archeological prospection
The course aims to provide the knowledge and skills necessary for the use of applied geophysics methodologies in the archaeological field, in the context of basic and professional research. The different techniques and methodological approaches presented are discussed, highlighting their potential and application limits.
Attendance and participation in the training activities provided will allow the student to acquire the general knowledge of the methods of Applied Geophysics necessary for the geophysical archaeological prospection.
Specifically, the student will be able to:
none
The course consists of lectures and exercises. As there are learning tests, attendance at lectures and exercises is strongly recommended.
Students who attend classes in presence are considered to be attending.
The teacher, at the specific request of each student, allows remote use of the lessons via the Teams platform; in this case, however, the students will be considered not attending.
The laboratory exercises will be organized if possible in presence, possibly with more shifts.
All the activities in the presence will be carried out in compliance with the capacity limits of the classrooms / laboratories and the spacing, provided for by the current legislation following the COVID19 emergency.
Lectures in the classroom are also delivered through multimedia presentations.All the slides used during the lessons, the handouts used and other teaching material will be available on AulaWeb at the end of each cycle of lessons.
The course program includes the presentation and discussion of the following topics • Introduction to the analysis of geophysical signals • Methods of potential (magnetic and gravimetric) • Geoelectric methods • Low frequency electromagnetic methods: conductivity meters. • High frequency electromagnetic methods: georadar • Modeling and inversion of geophysical signals

The oral exam will focus on the topics covered during the lectures and will aim to assess whether the student has achieved an adequate level of theoretical knowledge. The actual acquisition of knowledge of the investigation methods and the ability to apply them to concrete cases will be verified. The ability to present the arguments clearly and with correct terminology will also be assessed.
