Numis Lite by Iris Instruments
| Department of Basic Hydrogeology | Dr. Sebastian Buczyński |
Numis Lite utilizes magnetic resonance (MRS) phenomenon and allows
non-invasive recognition of hydrogeological conditions up to a depth of 50-60 m below ground level. The results obtained allow for determining the volume of water stored in the aquifer layer and indicate depth intervals of water-saturated and insulating layers along with hydrogeological parameters of rocks (permeability, filtration coefficient).
Ground-Penetrating Radar (GPR)
| Department of Structural Geology and Geological Cartography | Dr. Artur Sobczyk |
Model: RAMAC/GPR CU II Mala GeoScience
The RAMAC/GPR CU II GPR enables non-destructive geophysical surveys of the ground. The apparatus is equipped with a set of non-shielded antennas with frequencies of 50,100, and 200 MHz, and a shielded antenna with a frequency of 250 MHz.
The unit configuration allows for shallow geophysical imaging up to a depth of 25 m. We perform surveys for the purposes of geomorphology, environmental protection, geological mapping, sedimentology and hydrogeology, among others. It is also possible to conduct analyses for archaeological sites, underground infrastructure exploration and linear investments
Seistronix RAS-24
| Independent Geophysical Laboratory | Dr. hab. Jerzy Sobotka, Prof. UWr. |
24-channel, digital seismograph designed for shallow (up to 60 m with manual impact excitation), subsurface, precise seismic surveys.
Aardvark Field Infiltrometer
| Laboratory of Hydrogeological Parameters of Rocks | Dr. Tomasz Olichwer |
A fully automated Aardvark-type field infiltrometer is used to evaluate the filtration coefficient of failing rocks directly in a drilled borehole to a depth of 3 m. The measurement range varies from 10-4to 10-9m/s.
Boat Set with Trailer-mounted Engine
| Department of Applied Geology, Geochemistry and Environmental Management | Dr. Adriana Trojanowska-Olichwer |
Three-person open-deck boat “Mewa 2” with oars and a mounted TOHATSU 3.5 HP four-stroke engine, together with a “GNIOTPOL” boat trailer for transporting the boat. Boat length 3.6 m, width 1.35 m.
