Seismic Waves and Analysis

A ground‐penetrating radar study of medieval kiln sites located near Suzu city, on the Noto peninsula, was conducted prior to excavation. Archaeological site plans estimated from time slices of the closely‐spaced parallel radar profiles are compared with excavations and a proton magnetometer survey. The results indicate that non‐destructive remote sensing with radar can help to determine effectively the presence and general structural features of intact kiln floors.
