Estimating horizontal scale of fluctuation with limited CPT soundings

Estimating horizontal scale of fluctuation with limited CPT soundings

Show other versions (1)

The paper explores the possibility of estimating the horizontal scale of fluctuation (δh) with limited CPTs. The following conditions are desirable: (1) the CPT depth is large; (2) there are more than two CPTs; (3) the CPT separation distances are distinct and preferably less than 2 × δh; and (4) th...
