Modelling of Lithology and Hydraulic Conductivity of shallow Sediments from Resistivity Measurements Using Schlumberger Vertical Electric Soundings

摘要

The vertical electric soundings (VES) technique has been effectively used for several purposes related to investigations of surface solids and shallow sediments. These include detection of subsurface lithology, structures, stratification, and dipping layers; evaluation of physical properties that govern fluid flow and electric-current conduction; delineation of aquifers; assessment of engineering-site properties (such as pore-water saturation and clay content); and mapping various environmental problems (such as saline-water intrusion, groundwater contamination, and leachate transport through porous media).
