The last cycle of the glacial history including the glaciation of the Late Pleistocene (100 to 11 kyr BP) and the modern interglacial (Holocene) is a key period in climate research. Understanding the mechanisms of growth, dynamics and decay of ice sheets (the Laurentide ice sheet in North America and the Scandinavian ice sheet in Europe) provides information to understanding past global climate changes and more reliable predictions of the future climate. The direct source of information on the temperature regime a...

Major efforts are directed worldwide in order to establish proper strategies for the preservation of soil quality, its protection and sustainable use by precision farming techniques. Since the in-depth distribution of soil moisture represent valuable information for farmers, electric and electromagnetic techniques were employed for its investigation. Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) with small electrode space interval was utilized for illustrating sectors of vertical water penetration and horizontal sectors...
