Geologija kot dejavnik pri načrtovanju vojaških aktivnosti-primer Afganistan : diplomsko deloBratun, JulianThose expert at preparing defenses consider it fundamental to rely on the strengths of such obstacles as mountains, rivers and foothills. They make it possible for the enemy to know where to attack. ... The U.S. military actions in Afghanistan have brought into the world public's eye the people and place names of Afghanistan, its history, its religions and, not surprisingly, its geology. Geology's underlying role in recent events is particularly apparent because our adversaries have moved below ground. The military needs "geologicintelligence" on the locations and characteristics of caves, and on how resistant tunnel entrances may be to conventional and penetrating bombs. Geology has become particularly important in the search for Taliban and AI Qaeda forces in Afghanistan, where the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) estimates there are more than 10,000 caves, both natural and manmade. They have been called on to apply a wide variety of skills from afar to address the question of where terrorists could hide and how their presence might be detected. Military geologists are more often involved in basic studies and compilations of terrain, geology and soils. Military geologists must determine how well troops and vehicles can travel across a landscape. They must identify sources of groundwater, construction material or sites suitable for airfields. Or they must analyze underground rock environments, either for protecting critical military structures and personnel or for targeting weapons. The tool military geologists often use today is remote sensing: they can analyze a terrain's composition with multispectral or hyperspectral images. And in areas such as eastern Afghanistan, the sheer number of tunnels and caves presents an obstacle to geologists called upon to contribute to the evaluation of weapons effectiveness and targeting. These and related challenges keep the science of military geology a stimulating and constantly changing World; and one that is increasingly relevant to military activities and national security.Type of material - undergraduate thesis ; adult, seriousPublication and manufacture - Ljubljana : [J.
