Water Quality Analysis and Subsurface Lithology Characterisation and Its Environmental Implications Using Electrical Resistivity Survey
Authors(1) :-T Dharmavathi
In this project, measurements of vertical electrical soundings (VES) will carry out in Rajam. The resistivity method will carry out with a view to characterize different subsurface geological units and to provide the engineering/environmental geophysical characterization of the study area. Oneâ€dimensional numerical inversion of individual DC resistivity will use to enhance the processing of the results for better achievement of the aim of the study. Models which will be obtained from the 1D inversion of each VES, together with borehole information, will use for construction of geoâ€electrical sections which exhibit the main geoâ€electrical characteristics of the geological units present in the area. In this project, it is expecting that the final interpretation of the results will help to provide the geoâ€electrical successions which have different layers and to decide which layer is to be the most competent for founding small to medium engineering structures and which layer is considered to be the best water bearing structure. Project also includes the assessment of quality of the ground water by analyzing the water samples which will collect from bore wells in the surveyed area.
