Article Synopsis
- A new quantum gravity gradient sensor has been developed to improve the precision of gravity measurements in geophysics, particularly for applications in engineering and climate research.
- The sensor significantly reduces vibrational noise and achieves high statistical accuracy, allowing for detailed underground surveys, such as detecting a 2-meter tunnel with a high signal-to-noise ratio.
- Its capabilities can be applied to diverse fields, including aquifer mapping, archaeology, soil property analysis, and assessing construction site conditions, enhancing our understanding of subsurface features.
The aim of this study was to develop a better understanding of how electrical resistivity surveys can be used to locate clandestine graves. Resistivity surveys were conducted regularly over three simulated clandestine graves containing a pig cadaver, no cadaver and a pig cadaver wrapped in tarpaulin, respectively. Additionally, soil and groundwater samples were collected from two more simulated graves outside the survey area.
