In this work, we present the result of a large-scale geophysical survey that had the objective of identifying the subsurface characteristics and the NE-SW extension of the Hockai Fault Zone: a major NNW-SSE oriented crustal-rooted fault zone crossing the Stavelot-Venn Massif (Eastern Belgium). 31 two-dimensional electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) profiles are presented, resulting in 10,679...

Long-term draining of peatlands results in transformation vegetation and obliteration their morphological features. In many areas, efforts are made to restore the original ecosystems increase water retention potential. Using combined analyses a LiDAR-based digital terrain model (DTM), colour-infrared (CIR) imagery data, ground-penetrating radar (GPR) data electrical resistivity tomography (ERT)...

S U M M A R Y We propose a new, simple and efficient method to image electrical resistivity between a set of wells. Our procedure consists of two steps: first, we map the interfaces between various subsurface formations using seismoelectric conversions; second, we derive the formation resistivity using image-guided cross-well electric tomography. In the first step, we focus seismic energy at a ...

Abstract This study aims for the protection of a crude-oil pipeline, buried at shallow depth, against probable environmental hazard and pilferage. Both surface borehole geophysical techniques such as electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), ground penetrating radar (GPR), seismic refraction (SRT), cross-hole (CST) profiling (CSP) were used to map vulnerable zones. Data acquired using ERT, GPR S...

Knowledge of permafrost structure, with accumulations free natural gas and hydrates, is indispensable for coping spontaneous emission other problems related to exploration production drilling in Arctic petroleum provinces. The existing geophysical methods have different potentialities imaging the base geometry, vertical fluid conduits (permeable zones), taliks, pockets, hydrate continental area...

Abstract Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is a geophysical method used to create an image of the subsurface due its sensitivity porosity, water saturation, and pore fluid salinity. This has been widely applied in investigation mineral groundwater resources, as well archaeological, environmental, engineering studies. The prediction properties, such electrical conductivity, from measured E...

Accurate information about soil properties is required in plant growth and yield. Hence, the rising knowledge preservation of favourable basically driven by its vital role agricultural crop productivity. Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) GIS were used for site selection, suitability use topographical effect on distribution Ambrose Alli University. Twelve traverses conducted across study a...
