[A] resistivity survey in which the electrode spacing is fixed for all readings.  1, fiche 2, Anglais, - resistivity%20profile

Record number: 2, Textual support number: 1 CONT

Like the gravity and magnetic methods, resistivity surveys can also be employed to detect lateral variations in resistivity. Unlike soundings, profiles employ fixed electrode spacings, and the center of the electrode spread is moved for each reading. These experiments thus provide estimates of the spatial variation in resistivity at some fixed electrode spacing. Surveys that are designed to locate lateral variations in resistivity are referred to as resistivity profiles. An example of a problem for which one might employ resistivity profiles is the location of a vertical fault.  1, fiche 2, Anglais, - resistivity%20profile

Les lignes d'étude ont été prolongées jusqu'à un affleurement du substratum ou à un point où se trouvait très certainement le substratum à une profondeur très faible, pour déterminer les résistivités du substratum (couche superficielle latéritique, couche d'altération forte, rocher récent). Ces résultats ont largement contribué à l'interprétation géologique des profils de résistivité.  3, fiche 2, Français, - profil%20de%20r%C3%A9sistivit%C3%A9

A radiosonde carried by a balloon rising at a few meters per second does not measure such inversions accurately because the response time of the thermistor is several seconds. To quantify this error, we flew a radiosonde on a tethered kite on several occasions in winter at South Pole Station immediately prior to the routine launch of the same sonde on a weather balloon. In all cases, the equilibrated temperatures measured by the tethered sonde at a given pressure level were higher than those from the balloon-borne sonde throughout most of the inversion layer. Assuming that the tethered sonde data represent the true atmospheric temperature profile, a procedure can be developed to correct the temperature data from routine radiosonde soundings for the finite response time of the thermistor.  1, fiche 3, Anglais, - tethered%20sonde

Physical basis of remote sounding. A sounding is a vertical profile of atmospheric temperature, moisture or some other parameter. Soundings, including measurements of total water vapour content, total ozone, cloud height, cloud amount, surface temperature, etc., can be obtained from remote measurements of spectral radiance through carefully selected channels, often in the infrared(IR) or microwave regions of the electromagnetic spectrum.  6, fiche 4, Anglais, - meteorological%20remote%20sounding

Most meteorological rocket observations, also known as rocket soundings, are made from a rocketsonde probe that typically contains a temperature sensor. Other thermodynamic variables such as air pressure and density can be computed from the collected temperature data using appropriate thermodynamic equations or measured by use of special on-board pressure and density gauges.  2, fiche 5, Anglais, - rocket%20sounding
