Pre‐Excavation Identification and Dating of Iron Age Destruction Events
Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT To maximize extracted data while minimizing excavated areas, archaeologists increasingly use archaeological surveys, geophysical surveys and remote sensing to gain comprehensive regional pictures and decide if and where to excavate. The goal of this effort is to leave sufficient unexcavated areas for future generations and save time and ...

Estimating the water holding capacity of the critical zone using near‐surface geophysics
Hydrological Processes, 2018 In high‐mountain watersheds, the critical zone holds crucial life‐sustaining water stores in the form of shallow groundwater aquifers. To better understand the role that the critical zone plays in moderating hydrologic response to fluxes at the surface ...

Tellus, 1958 Sir, In a recent paper Dr WEXLER (1958) states that ice loss by melting or evaporation is nil in Antarctica. The idea that melting and evaporation are negligible factors in the Antarctic ice budget is widely held, even though the evidence on which it is based is rather scanty.

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT We present a study that combines several marine geophysical techniques to detect and map archaeological sites from the Roman period in the shallow waters of the Venice Lagoon, Italy. We employed marine electrical resistivity tomography (M‐ERT), a drone‐based unmanned surface vehicle (USV) multibeam sonar, and subbottom profiler technology to ...

Deciphering Neolithic Habitation in Aegean Thrace Through Geophysical Prospection Surveys
Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite the relatively extensive archaeological research conducted in Greece focusing on the Neolithic period, Aegean Thrace remains one of the least studied regions. To address this gap, the MAPFARM (Mapping the Early Farmers in Thrace) project employed systematic archaeological surface survey combined with large‐scale geophysical prospection

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Saruq al‐Hadid, located at the edge of the Rub Al‐Khali desert near Dubai's southern border with Abu Dhabi, is among the region's richest archaeological sites. Renowned for its historical role in metallurgy, trade and human habitation, the site was occupied from the Umm an‐Nar period through the post–Iron Age. Despite its significance, much of

Archaeological Prospection, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper tackles one key limitation in the analysis of Iron Age communities in the Northwestern Iberian Peninsula: the limited exploration of areas beyond the fortified settlements known as castros (hillforts). The vast majority of archaeological studies have focused exclusively on the areas inside the walls of these settlements, which are ...
