Litterature

The course is primarily based on the book: Marine Geophysics by E.J.W. Jones.

ISBN: 978-0-471-98694-2 , 474 pages, August 1999, Wiley.

Even if there are technological developments of marine geophysical mapping methods since the latest published edition of this book, the basic geophysical theories and concepts as presented in the book holds up rather well. Where specific developments are identified, complementary literature and references are included in the lectures. This specifically concerns high-resolution acoustical mapping methods. For this reason, the following papper is included as course literature:

Mapping submarine glacial landforms using acoustic methods by Jakobsson, M., Gyllencreutz, R., Mayer, L.A., Dowdeswell, J.A., Canals, M., Todd, B.J., Dowdeswell, E.K., Hogan, K.A., and Larter, R.D. In Dowdeswell, J. A., Canals, M., Jakobsson, M., Todd, B. J., Dowdeswell, E. K. & Hogan, K. A. (eds) 2016. Atlas of Submarine Glacial Landforms: Modern, Quaternary and Ancient. Geological Society, London, Memoirs, 46, 1–2

The chapter has been made Open Access and is therefore available for download. Note: this article has been updated October 27 2020
