Correlation techniques are in the process of passing from the research laboratory to the field. This paper seeks to aid the transition. The three main sections of the paper have these objects:1 To state in words the basic principles on which correlation techniques are based, and the connection between these principles and more familiar concepts which are already among the tools of the exploration geophysicist. 1 To review briefly the published applications of correlation techniques in science generally. 1 To discuss some of the additional applications which are now emerging in exploration geophysics.The treatment is graphical and illustrative, rather than rigorous. The paper is addressed to the practising exploration geoscientist and to the newcomer to correlation techniques. A list of about 150 references is given.
