Towards an Evaluation of Soil Structure Alteration from GPR Responses and Their Implications for Management Practices by Akinniyi Akinsunmade

“…Subsequently, GPR measurements were acquired via pre-established profiles on the test site, and soil samples were taken for the laboratory evaluation of some of the soil’s physical properties. An analysis of the field data revealed that zones of distorted soil structures have lower attenuation effects on the GPR signal, with corresponding lower amplitude values compared with the unaltered soil structure zones. …”

Cristóbal Benítez, as de espías: La inteligencia española en el sur de Marruecos a finales del siglo xix by Francisco Manuel Pastor Garrigues

“…The correspondence of the consular agents with the Ministry of State, which is now kept in the General Administration Archive in Alcalá de Henares (AGA, Madrid), shows how, in this historical context, Mogador became an observatory from which Spain was able to investigate Republican pretensions in the Souss. Analysis of the content of the dispatches allows us to understand the mechanism that the Essaouira consulate, with the approval of the Restoration government, set up to carry out intelligence operations, from the collection of unpublished data, its processing and the dispatch of information to Madrid, and the structuring of a counter-espionage service, led by the explorer Cristóbal Benítez and an indigenous agent, El Morabet, who had to confront an uprising in the Souss territory, led by the head of the commercial house of Iligh, Muley Mohammed ben Hussein, which had the backing of France. …”
