Zhdanov, Michael S. | 3-D magnetic inversion with data compression and image focusing | We develop a method of 3-D magnetic anomaly inversion based on traditional Tikhonov regularization theory. We use a minimum support stabilizing functional to generate a sharp, focused inverse image. An iterative inversion process is constructed in the space of weighted model parameters that acce... | | 2002-01-01 |

Miller, Jan D.; Lin, Chen-Luh | 3D analysis of particulates in mineral processing systems by cone beam X-ray microtomography | In general, x-ray computed tomographic (CT) techniques are able to provide 3D images of the internal structure of opaque materials in a nondestructive manner. The unique cone beam geometry allows acquisition of all 2D projections with only one rotation of the sample thus providing for fast data acqu... | X-ray microtomography; Liberation; Heap leaching; Exposure analysis; Coal washability | 2003 |

Zhdanov, Michael | 3D inversion of airborne electromagnetic data | Time-domain airborne surveys gather hundreds of thousands of multichannel, multicomponent samples. The volume of data and other complications have made 1D inversions and transforms the only viable method to interpret these data, in spite of their limitations. We have developed a practical methodolog... | | 2012-01-01 |

Reichler, Thomas J. | A stratospheric connection to Atlantic climate variability | It is well recognized that the stratosphere is connected to tropospheric weather and climate. In particular, extreme stratospheric circulation events and their dynamical feedback on the troposphere are known to play a major role1. However, what is not known to date is whether the state of the strat... | | 2012-01-01 |
