Thesis Abstract

Abstract
Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a powerful geophysical technique that has been widely used in environmental studies to investigate subsurface features and properties. This thesis explores the applications of GPR in environmental studies, focusing on its effectiveness in mapping and characterizing subsurface structures, detecting contaminants, and assessing soil properties. The study begins with an introduction to GPR technology and its principles, followed by a comprehensive literature review that discusses previous research on the topic. The research methodology section outlines the approach taken in this study, including data collection, processing, and interpretation methods. The findings of this research reveal the potential of GPR in environmental studies, showcasing its ability to provide high-resolution subsurface images and valuable information for environmental assessment and remediation projects. The discussion of findings section delves into the implications of the results, highlighting the strengths and limitations of using GPR in environmental studies. Through a series of case studies and field experiments, this thesis demonstrates the practical applications of GPR in various environmental settings, including urban areas, agricultural fields, and contaminated sites. In conclusion, this thesis summarizes the key findings and contributions of the study, emphasizing the significance of GPR as a non-invasive and cost-effective tool for environmental investigations. The research presented in this thesis advances our understanding of the applications of GPR in environmental studies and provides valuable insights for future research and practical applications in environmental management. Overall, this study highlights the importance of integrating GPR technology into environmental assessment and monitoring programs to enhance our ability to understand and protect the environment.
