Electrical resistivity interpretation method & resistivity profile for investigations on selected case studies

Abstract

Electrical resistivity has been previously reviewed with interpretation of presented earlier in a case study, it is known that resistivity surveys are all based on the method of Wenner. A current, I, is passed into the earth through one point electrode and returns to the apparatus through a second. The potential difference between two points on the earth's surface, V, is measured. The profile based on the ‘VES’ interpretation on an extended review of a previous publication from a landslide filled site adjacent to a dumpsite from Abule- Egba Area and environ in Lagos was presented here.
