- aggregation abstract "Buried unexploded ammunition is a major problem on arable land in former battle areas. Many battlefields of the First World War (WWI) still contain a lot of unexploded shells just below the plough layer, posing serious threats to soil editors and trenchers. Electromagnetic induction (EMI) sensors have been used for a variety of agricultural and archaeological purposes to map the natural soil variability and to locate buried archaeological remains. Besides its sensitivity to variations in soil texture and anthropogenic disturbances, EMI proves to respond strongly to metal objects in the soil. Most EMI sensors rely on a single signal, with magnitude and sign of the metal anomalies differing according to the instruments coil distance and separation. The multi-coil EMI sensor, the DUALEM-21S, provides four simultaneous apparent electrical conductivity (ECa) signals enhancing significantly the possibilities for signal processing. To calibrate our instrument, we buried different masses of metal at different depths. The four ECa measurements showed a response to the metal objects down to 1.2 m. The measurements were subtracted by their gradual trend to obtain the local anomalies (Delta ECa). A combination of these four Delta ECa's was used to amplify the signal response to metal, influenced by both depth and mass of the buried objects. At an intensively shelled former WWI battle field near Ypres (Belgium), a detailed prospection was conducted with the DUALEM-21S. Based on our multi-signal procedure, we located 40 positions, 20 where we predicted buried metal and 20 where we expected that no metal was present within 1.2 m depth. There were no false negative predictions and at the 20 locations where we expected metal, shells up to 90 kg were excavated. As a final outcome we produced a map with predictions of the mass of metal objects in the soil assuming a fixed depth and alternatively a map with predictions of the depth of metal objects assuming a given mass. Apart from their potential for agricultural and archaeological investigations, multi-ECa signals were shown to be useful for locating metal objects, like unexploded WWI shells, in the top 1.2 m of soil.".
