Application of Georadar and Geoelectric methodes to estimate the shallow structures


Abstract in English

The aim of this research consists of the study the possibility of using the geophysical methods to estimate the shallow geological structures and to show the detailed lithological changes. The geoelectric and georadar methods have been implemented in an area at Torgau city in Germany. These methods have been applied on polluted aquiferes. Also geotechnical study has been implemented in this area to compare the geophysical results. The results show high resolution in both methods to estimate the underground geological structures. By the integrated both methods, the horizontal and vertical changes of these structures have been estimated with high accuracy.
