Abstract:

Groundwater is the main source of water supply in areas in Nigeria including the research area. The research is aimed at delineating groundwater potentials in Ganye and environs using Dar Zarrouk parameters. Fourteen (14) vertical electrical soundings were conducted across the study area in order to determine Dar Zarrouk parameters to determine groundwater potentials in Ganye and environs. The area is underlain by migmatite-gneiss and Pan African granites. Weathered/fractured basement constitute the aquifer type in the area. The aquifer conductivity in the study area range between 0.00871 to 0

Abstract:

Aquifers along the coastal regions around the world are facing severe level of saline water intrusion problems. Rapid development and the associated increase in groundwater withdrawals intensify the problem. Extensive mapping of migration and extent of salt water plumes is difficult and costly. Several surficial geophysical methods have been developed for measuring salinity levels in coastal aquifers. The present study is an attempt to delineate the saline water and fresh water intrusion in parts of west coast of Maharashtra, India. A total of 86 vertical electrical soundings were carried out

Abstract: Determination of hydrological properties of the aquifer is of fundamental importance in hydro-geological and geoelectrical studies. An attempt has been made to review briefly the fundamental equations that form the basis of electrical prospecting and relationship with the aquifer parameters in terms of hydrogeologic and electrical soundings. The empirical relationship between hydrogeologic and Dar Zarrouk parameters will also need to review the concepts of anisotropy, equivalence, and suppression for characterization of the water quality through the electrical resistivity.

A total of 11 vertical electrical soundings (VES) was carried out in the study area using the Schlumberger electrode configuration. The results of the interpretation show that the area comprises 4 geoelectric layers. The third layer constitutes the major economic hydrogeological unit in the area and has resistivity of between 50.3 Ωm and 2088.9 Ωm and thickness of between 36.8 m and 149.0m respectively. The groundwater quality was assessed through estimates of th

Abstract:

Seawater intrusion is a major challenge in many coastal areas all around the world, mainly caused by over-exploitation of freshwater resources, climate change, and sea-level rise. Consequently, seawater intrusion reaches several kilometers inland, thus making the freshwater resources polluted and unsuitable for human use. Conventionally, the fresh-saline water interface is delineated by the number of laboratory tests obtained from boreholes. However, such tests suffer from efficiency in terms of data coverage, time, and cost. Hence, this work introduces Dar-Zarrouk (D-Z) parameters, namely tra

Geoelectrical survey was conducted by using vertical electrical sounding technique (VES) with adapting Schlumberger configuration, to locate and drill a borehole for groundwater extraction in the Kodana station for the Shami goats, Southern Syria. An integrated approach is proposed to increase the efficacy of the VES technique and to reduce the uncertainties and the high failures in locating and drilling a successful groundwater borehole. The approach is essentially based on analyzing the Dar-Zarrouk (D-Z) parameters with constraining several conditions to obtain the optimum hydro-geophysical

Delineation of fresh/saline groundwater is essential for sustainable water quality management, especially in the coastal areas all around the globe. Seawater intrusion causes substantial degradation in quality of freshwater resources in the coastal areas. The main reason for saltwater intrusion is the changing environment in terms of sea-level rise, climate change, and over-extraction of freshwater resources to meet the growing demands. In this study, an integrated approach of geophysical and geochemical methods was used to assess saltwater intrusion in the coastal areas of Bela Plain, Pakista

Abstract:

Groundwater is the main supply of fresh water in many parts of the world. The intrusion of saline water into the fresh water is a serious threat to groundwater resources. Delineation of fresh-saline aquifer zones is essential to exploit the potable fresh water. The conventional method to differentiate fresh-saline water interface is to collect and test groundwater samples from boreholes using a number of laboratory tests. However, such techniques are expensive and time consuming. A non-invasive geoelectrical method, in combination with borehole data and physicochemical analysis, is proposed to
