Remote sensing and geophysical survey applications for delineating near-surface palaeochannels and shallow aquifer in the United Arab Emirates     

Samy Ismail Elmahdy  Mohamed Mostafa Mohamed 《国际地球制图》2015,30(7):723-736

This study integrates remote sensing data and geoelectrical dipole–dipole resistivity to delineate near-surface palaeochannels and shallow aquifer in the northern part of Abu Dhabi Emirate, United Arab Emirates. The shuttle imaging radar images and shuttle radar topographic mission DEM were used to delineate near-surface palaeochannels visually based on the contrast between bright and dark tone and automatically using the eight-direction flow model. The delineated palaeochannels were validated by comparing the textural features evident from advanced land observing satellite-phased array type L-band synthetic aperture radar images and determining whether these patterns were different. Field observation and geoelectrical dipole–dipole resistivity method was used to define the depth of palaeochannels and lithology of the shallow aquifer. The remote sensing and geophysical investigations in the UAE, including the study area, indicate the presence of buried palaeochannels with south-west and north-west flow directions from Oman Mountain. The study area can be of economic importance to the local population.  相似文献

Electrical resistivity surveys to delineate groundwater potential aquifers in Peddavanka watershed,Anantapur District,Andhra Pradesh,India   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

S.?Srinivasa GowdEmail author 《Environmental Geology》2004,46(1):118-131

Vertical electrical resistivity soundings were conducted in order to delineate groundwater potential aquifers in Peddavanka watershed, which is a catchment of about 398 km² in Anantapur District, Andhra Pradesh, India. The main lithologic units in the watershed are quartzite, limestone, shale, and alluvium. Ninety-nine vertical electrical soundings were conducted using the Schlumberger configuration, covering the entire watershed. The data were interpreted with the help of master curves and auxiliary point charts. Interpretations of VES were used to generate a top layer apparent resistivity contour map and longitudinal conductance map. Isoresistivity contour maps were prepared and interpreted in terms of resistivity and thickness of various sub-surface layers using computer software (SURFER), and isocontour diagrams depicting the depth to bedrock were prepared. Resistivity results were correlated with the existing lithology. Based on the depth to bedrock, the thickness of the saturated layer and the resistivity of the second layer, a groundwater potential map has been prepared, in which good, moderate, and poor zones are classified. The study reveals that the weathered and fractured portions in shale and limestone that occur in the southernmost and central portions of the watershed area constitute the productive water-bearing zones categorized as good groundwater potential aquifers.  相似文献   

Multi-electrode resistivity survey for groundwater exploration in the Harare greenstone belt, Zimbabwe     

R. J. Owen  O. Gwavava  P. Gwaze 《Hydrogeology Journal》2006,14(1-2):244-252

A multi-electrode resistivity survey, carried out over metasedimentary strata and metavolcanics in the Harare greenstone belt in northeastern Zimbabwe as part of a groundwater resources investigation, illustrates the ability of this technique to produce high-resolution images of the subsurface, which are useful for groundwater resources assessment. The resistivity results provide a clear view of the thickness of the weathered regolith and of the distribution of the various lithological units. Using a combination of apparent formation resistivity and inferred depth of weathering, it is possible to characterize the various lithologies on the geophysical profiles. These assigned lithologies show excellent correlation with the mapped geology, and the main lithologies, metabasalt, meta-arenite, granodiorite and banded iron formation can be clearly identified. The banded iron formation is characterized by low resistivity values, while a combination of the depth of weathering and resistivity values are used to distinguish between the meta-arenite on one hand and the metabasalt and granodiorite on the other. The multi-electrode method is successful in identifying potentially favourable zones for obtaining groundwater, such as areas with a maximum depth of weathered regolith, zones of fracturing and faulting, and high porosity and permeability zones associated with lithological contacts.

Resumen Un estudio de resistividad multi-electrodo que se llevó a cabo en estratos meta sedimentarios y metavolcánicos en el cinturón de rocas verdes de Harare, en la parte noreste de Zimbabwe, como parte de una investigación de recursos de agua subterránea, ilustra la capacidad de esta técnica para producir imágenes de alta resolución de la subsuperficie, las cuales son útiles para la evaluación de los recursos da agua subterránea. Los resultados de resistividad suministran una visión clara el espesor del regolito meteorizado y de la distribución de varias unidades litológicas. Mediante el uso de una combinación de resistividad aparente de formación y de una profundidad inferida de meteorización, es posible caracterizar las diferentes litologías en los perfiles geofísicos. Estas litologías asignadas muestran una excelente correlación con la cartografía geológica y se pueden identificar las litologías predominantes como metabasalto, meta-arenita, granodiorita y formación de hierro bandeado. Esta última se caracteriza por valores bajos de resistividad, mientras que se utiliza una combinación de profundidad de meteorización y valores de resistividad, para distinguir entre meta-arenita por un lado y metabasalto y granodiorita por el otro. El método multi-electrodo es exitoso para identificar zonas potencialmente favorables para captar agua subterránea, las cuales pueden ser áreas con una profundidad máxima de regolito meteorizado, o bien zonas de fracturamiento y fallamiento, o también zonas de porosidad y permeabilidad altas asociadas con contactos litológicos.

Résumé La prospection électrique par la méthode de multiélectrodes, effectuée pour linvestigation des eaux souterraines cantonnés dans des roches métamorphiques dorigine sédimentaire et volcanique de la ceinture de Harare-Zimbabwe a mis en évidence les possibilités de cette technique de réaliser des images à grande résolution du sous-sol qui sont très utiles pour lévaluation de la ressource en eaux souterraines. Daprès la distribution de la résistance il résulte une image très claire de lépaisseur des regolithes altérés ainsi que de la distribution des différentes unités lithologiques. Daprès les profiles géophysiques on peut caractériser les différents lithologies en utilisant les résistivités apparentes de la formation respective et les informations sur la profondeur de la zone altérée. Les lithologies ainsi déterminées montrent une excellente corrélation avec les cartes géologiques et on peut très bien identifier les lithologies principales comme les metabasaltes et les meta-arenites, les granodiorites et les formations de fer rubanées. Cettes dernières sont caractérisées par des faibles valeurs de la résistivité, tandis que en utilisant les résistivité et la profondeur de la zone altérée on peut distinguer les meta-arenites de granodiorites et des metabasaltes. La méthode des multiélectrodes est donc capable didentifier des formations favorables à laccumulation en eau comme les zones de faille et des fractures, ainsi que les zones à grande porosité et perméabilité, associées aux contactes lithologiques.

A morphological, sedimentological and geophysical investigation of the Woore Moraine, Shropshire, England     

Aidan A. Parkes  Richard I. Waller  Ian G. Stimpson  Keith T. Mason 《Proceedings of the Geologists' Association. Geologists' Association》2009,120(4):233-73

The Bar Hill-Whitchurch-Wrexham Morainic Complex is a large-scale glacial landform thought to represent either the maximum extent or the re-advance of the British-Irish Ice Sheet during the Late Devensian. The origin of the moraine remains uncertain as its key characteristics have not been studied in detail due to a lack of exposures from which its large-scale structure can be determined. The development of new technologies has enabled detailed examination of the topography and internal structure of such large-scale landforms. This paper describes a multi-disciplinary approach involving digital geomorphological mapping using enhanced resolution NextMAP™ digital surface models, geophysical imaging (electrical resistivity tomography) and conventional sedimentological analyses. This combination of techniques is useful for elucidating the origin of a large glacial landform in a region of poor exposure. Digital elevation models such as NextMAP™ offer an efficient and accurate method for landform-mapping, whilst electrical resistivity tomography was able to map the major constituent sediments of the moraine, which had in turn been identified in the single exposure available. Additional geophysical techniques should however be applied to provide further structural data and thereby enable a more detailed interpretation of the moraine's internal structure. Preliminary findings indicate that the moraine is a glaciotectonic landform composed of diamicton and glaciofluvial sediments, an origin consistent with recent suggestions that the Cheshire Plain contained an active ice lobe during the last glacial maximum.  相似文献
