5Mantle plume — A superplume generated by cooling processes in the mantle.[1] A mantle plume is a hypothetical thermal diapir of abnormally hot rock that nucleates at the core mantle boundary and rises through the Earth s mantle. Such plumes were invoked in 1971 …
6Crosshole sonic logging — (CSL) is a method to verify the structural integrity of drilled shafts and other concrete piles. The CSL method is considered to be more accurate than sonic echo testing in the determination of structural soundness of concrete within the drilled… …
7Seismology — (from Greek gr. σεισμός, seismos , earthquake ; and gr. λογία, logia ) is the scientific study of earthquakes and the propagation of elastic waves through the Earth. The field also includes studies of earthquake effects, such as tsunamis as well… …
8Water content — Soil composition by phase: s soil (dry), v void (pores filled with water or air), w water, a air. V is volume, M is mass. Water content or moisture content is the quantity of water contained in a material, such as soil (called soil moisture),… …
9Porosity — or void fraction is a measure of the void (i.e., empty ) spaces in a material, and is a fraction of the volume of voids over the total volume, between 0–1, or as a percentage between 0–100%. The term is used in multiple fields including… …
