“…The shallower low velocity values are in strong contrast to the lowermost and confirm the presence of a sediment volume at the surface, which is mechanically significantly weaker than its underlying. The observed velocity values <80 m/s indicate soft sediment such as fine-grained lake fills or swampy organic material [23]. It can be interpreted as the sediment sequence of the former lake consisting of peat and fine-grained organic sediments like gyttja and the Lateglacial fine minerogenic sediments.…”

“…Additionally, inter-drilling point sections have to be interpolated, resulting in an unknown uncertainty about small-scale changes in the stratigraphy. This disadvantage can be improved by combining drilling with non-invasive geophysical methods, ground-penetrating radar (GPR), electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and S-wave seismics, which allow a laterally continuous mapping of the lithological change [23,24].…”

“…Typically, this involves the GPR technique as Considering that the geophysical response of complex geological bodies exhibits different physical properties due to the fact that such horizons are composed of a combination of layers with contrasting properties and are caused by a host of geological, geotechnical, and climatic factors, a multidisciplinary approach is often recommended to gather an in-depth understanding of the features. Typically, this involves the GPR technique as the primary method to determine the velocity and geometrical attributes of the subsur-face, while electrical resistivity tomography and seismic reflection and refraction often work as complementary methods [302][303][304][305][306][307][308][309], due to their limited resolutions and mediocre stratum-detection performance, in particular for the shallow subsurface.…”
