Geophysical Services

Our use of geophysical methods provides unique insight into challenging environmental problems reducing the likelihood of overlooking unexpected subsurface conditions.

The application of Geophysics to challenging geologic, environmental, engineering, or other scientific problems provides an alternative, often unique, insight into the subsurface unlike more conventional assessment methods such as drilling. The Mundell & Associates Geophysical Department supplies you strategies that reduce the likelihood of overlooking unexpected subsurface conditions while enhancing the understanding of subsurface site characteristics.

The array and scope of geophysical imaging is virtually endless, and new applications are constantly being developed. We specialize in these main categories.

Reduce Erosion and Preserve Topsoil

Land degradation has increased around the world as our human activities pollute or degrade the quality of soil, affecting not only food production but the overall ecosystems. What can we do locally to preserve our soil?

  • Rotate the crops you grow in your garden.
  • Use local mulch, especially in bare stops to help plants ground and prevent water runoff.
  • Plant large plants such as trees and hedges to reduce wind speed.
  • Minimize soil compaction by create permanent walkways and encouraging people to stay on them.
