Abstract

The anomalous effects of subsurface electromagnetic wave propagation and scattering that were observed during a practical survey by ground penetrating radar are considered and analyzed. These effects are connected with high-speed and low-attenuation wave propagation and can be considered as a result of lateral electromagnetic waves. Field results of subsurface radar survey on a building foundation and archeological subsurface tunnels in Ukraine during 1997-1998 that demonstrate the lateral wave effects are presented and discussed
