Crustal constraint through complete model space screening for diverse geophysical datasets facilitated by emulation (2012)
Journal Article
Roberts, A., Hobbs, R., Goldstein, M., Moorkamp, M., Jegen, M., & Heincke, B. (2012). Crustal constraint through complete model space screening for diverse geophysical datasets facilitated by emulation. Tectonophysics, 572-573, 47-63. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tecto.2012.03.006

Deep crustal constraint is often carried out using deterministic inverse methods, sometimes using seismic refraction, gravity and electromagnetic datasets in a complementary or “joint” scheme. With increasingly powerful parallel computer systems it i... Read More about Crustal constraint through complete model space screening for diverse geophysical datasets facilitated by emulation.

Tracking bottom waters in the Southern Adriatic Sea applying seismic oceanography techniques. (2012)
Journal Article
Carniel, S., Bergamasco, A., Book, J. W., Hobbs, R. W., Sclavo, M., & Wood, W. T. (2012). Tracking bottom waters in the Southern Adriatic Sea applying seismic oceanography techniques. Continental Shelf Research, 44, 30-38. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.csr.2011.09.004

We present the first results from the seismic oceanography (SO) cruise ADRIASEISMIC where we successfully imaged thermohaline fine structures in the shallow water environment (50–150 m) of the southern Adriatic Sea during March 2009 using a compact t...

Bayesian Strategies to Assess Uncertainty in Velocity Models (2012)
Journal Article
Caiado, C. C., Goldstein, M., & Hobbs, R. W. (2012). Bayesian Strategies to Assess Uncertainty in Velocity Models. Bayesian Analysis, 7(1), 211-234. https://doi.org/10.1214/12-ba707

Quantifying uncertainty in models derived from observed seismic data is a major issue. In this research we examine the geological structure of the sub-surface using controlled source seismology which gives the data in time and the distance between th...

Magnetic Gradient and Electrical Resistivity Tomography Surveys in Meroe, the Capital City of the Kush Kingdom, Sudan (2012)
Journal Article
Mohamed-Ali, M., Herbich, T., Grzymski, K., & Hobbs, R. (2012). Magnetic Gradient and Electrical Resistivity Tomography Surveys in Meroe, the Capital City of the Kush Kingdom, Sudan. Archaeological Prospection, 19(1), 59-68. https://doi.org/10.1002/arp.1415

One of the most important archaeological sites in Sudan is Meroe, capital city of the kingdom of Kush (800 bc to ad 400). The site is located in the Nile valley, about 200 km northeast of Khartoum. The most prominent feature among the ruins of Meroe... Read More about Magnetic Gradient and Electrical Resistivity Tomography Surveys in Meroe, the Capital City of the Kush Kingdom, Sudan.

Mapping turbidity layers using seismic oceanography methods (2012)
Journal Article
Vsemirnova, E., Hobbs, R., & Hosegood, P. (2012). Mapping turbidity layers using seismic oceanography methods. Ocean Science and Discussions, 8(1), 11-18. https://doi.org/10.5194/os-8-11-2012

Using a combination of seismic oceanographic and physical oceanographic data acquired across the Faroe-Shetland Channel we present evidence of a turbidity layer that transports suspended sediment along the western boundary of the Channel. We focus on... Read More about Mapping turbidity layers using seismic oceanography methods.
