This article consists of geoelectrical resistivity data sets for thirty (30) vertical electrical sounding (VES) and four (4) traverses of 2D electrical resistivity imaging (ERI) collected within Iyesi, Ota, southwestern Nigeria for about five (5) weeks between December, 2016 and January, 2017 using an ABEM Terrameter (SAS1000/4000). The observed apparent resistivity data sets for the VES were p...

Relatively few investigations have employed electrical methods in the submarine environment, which may be promising for mineral deposits or threatened by environmental problems. We have measured the electric field using both disk and bar electrodes in the sea water at three different levels: sea surface, seven meters deep, and sea bottom at a depth of ten meters, employing a 2 m spacing dipole-...

Koefoed has given practical procedures of obtaining the layer parameters directly from the apparent resistivity sounding measurements by using the raised kernel function H(A) as the intermediate step. However, it is fel...

Electrical resistivity method was used in carrying out geophysical investigations at the Centre for Energy Research and Training (CERT), Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, with a view of determining the depth to the bedrock, thickness of the top soil and weathered basement.Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) using Schlumberger array was carried out at forty (40) VES stations. ABEM terrameter (SAS 3...

Some multi-electrode resistivity studies were performed within and outside the landfill as part of the environmental project. The apparent-resistivity data were collected using a dipole-dipole survey with 21 electrodes (spaced a=5m with n= 1, ...,18), to give a total line-length of 100 meters. Data inversion was carried out using the DCINV2D program. All the subsequent inversions had a RMS less...
