TLDR
There have been major improvements in instrumentation, field survey design and data inversion techniques for the geoelectrical method over the past 25 years as mentioned in this paper, which has made it possible to conduct large 2D, 3D and even 4D surveys efficiently to resolve complex geological structures that were not possible with traditional 1-D surveys.

Combined electrical resistivity tomography and ground penetrating radar to map Eurasian badger (Meles Meles) burrows in clay-rich flood embankments (levees)

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors used electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and ground penetrating radar (GPR) to image two badger burrow networks, called "setts", located in clay embankments on the River Ouse, UK.

Three-dimensional electrical resistivity tomography for the exploration of the prehistoric deposits of Fumane cave (Verona, Italy)

TL;DR: Obradović et al. as discussed by the authors used two resistivity arrays to obtain the first 2-3 meters of the Fumane Cave and the total depth of the entire deposit.

Determination of Groundwater Quality Near a Non-engineered Landfill Using Electrical Resistivity Tomography

TL;DR: In this article, a model non-engineered landfill of dimension 4 m × 2.4 m × 0.6 m depth was prepared to replicate the original site condition and water quality index was calculated to determine the quality of water for each sample and correlated with the resistivity data.

The electrical resistivity log as an aid in determining some reservoir characteristics

TL;DR: The usefulness of the electrical resistivity log in determining reservoir characteristics is governed largely by: (1) the accuracy with which the true resistivity of the formation can be determined; (2) the scope of detailed data concerning the relation of resistivity measurements to formation characteristics; (3) the available information concerning the conductivity of connate or formation waters; and (4) the extent of geologic knowledge regarding probable changes in facies within given horizons, both vertically and laterally, particularly in relation to the resultant effect on the electrical properties of the reservoir as mentioned in this paper.

An Introduction to Applied and Environmental Geophysics

TL;DR: The first edition of the book as mentioned in this paper contains case histories, and descriptions of geophysical techniques not previously included in such textbooks, but the level of mathematics and physics is deliberately kept to a minimum but is described qualitatively within the text.

Occam's inversion to generate smooth, two-dimensional models from magnetotelluric data

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors propose an extension of the existing 1-D algorithm, Occam's inversion, to smooth 2-D models using an extension to the existing Occam inversion.
