Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book is a valuable resource for scientists and engineers working in the field of sediment density measurement. The author provides a detailed overview of the theory and operation of the gamma probe, a device used to measure the density of sediment in situ. The book also includes a comprehensive calibration procedure for the gamma probe, as well as a discussion of the limitations of the device. The author provides a thorough examination of the historical development of the gamma probe, placing it within the context of other methods for measuring sediment density. The book also explores the complex attenuation processes that occur in materials surrounding the gamma probe, and it provides a detailed explanation of how these processes can be used to measure sediment density. The author concludes by discussing the significance of the gamma probe as a tool for understanding the behavior of sediment in aquatic environments.
