Using geophysics to understand subsurface aspects of the 3D hydrogeologic framework of Rio Grande basins - contributions to the project "Geologic Framework of Rio Grande Basins"
Understanding the subsurface is critical to develop a 3D geologic framework of Rio Grande basins, yet drill-hole information is typically too sparse and/or too shallow to gain enough information about the properties of subsurface materials and the structure of the basins. Therefore geophysical methods are the primary tools for developing this understanding. Current study areas are focusing on Subsurface Models and Intrabasinal Faults. |
