Geophysical Surveys

M-AT geophysical investigations include mapping of seabed and riverbed morphology and sub-bottom stratigraphy.  Remote sensing systems and devices utilized include: high-resolution sub-bottom seismic reflection, side scan sonar, marine magnetometers, and a variety of sediment coring and sampling techniques to support and confirm remote sensing data.

SAMPLE PROJECTS:

• Monogahela: Depositional zone identification along a portion of the Monongahela River near the Big John Salvage Remedial Investigation, Fairmont, Marion County, West Virginia
• Myrtle Beach, SC: High resolution sub-bottom profile survey of Myrtle Beach offshore borrow areas for Charleston District US Army Corps of Engineers
