The Geological Survey of Canada has been involved with the calibration of borehole gamma-ray spectrometers since 1977 when it constructed the first borehole gamma-ray calibration facilities. Inconsistencies in the results from intercomparisons with other facilities demonstrated the importance of reliable quantitative gamma-ray borehole measurements. The model boreholes described in this bulletin have been designed to avoid many of the problems associated with the construction of borehole calibration facilities which were revealed through the intercomparison exercises. This report should therefore be of practical use to those wishing to construct similar calibration facilities elsewhere.

Treatise on Geophysics, Second Edition, is a comprehensive and in-depth study of the physics of the Earth beyond what any geophysics text has provided previously. Thoroughly revised and updated, it provides fundamental and state-of-the-art discussion of all aspects of geophysics. A highlight of the second edition is a new volume on Near Surface Geophysics that discusses the role of geophysics in the exploitation and conservation of natural resources and the assessment of degradation of natural systems by pollution. Additional features include new material in the Planets and Moon, Mantle Dynamics, Core Dynamics, Crustal and Lithosphere Dynamics, Evolution of the Earth, and Geodesy volumes. New material is also presented on the uses of Earth gravity measurements. This title is essential for professionals, researchers, professors, and advanced undergraduate and graduate students in the fields of Geophysics and Earth system science. Comprehensive and detailed coverage of all aspects of geophysics Fundamental and state-of-the-art discussions of all research topics Integration of topics into a coherent whole
