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.

Three‐dimensional time‐lapse geoelectrical monitoring of water infiltration in an experimental mine waste rock pile

TL;DR: In this paper, a 3D time-lapse hydrogeophysical monitoring program was conducted to assess water infiltration and movement in a waste rock pile at the Lac Tio mine in Canada.

Can tree tilting indicate mechanisms of slope movement

TL;DR: In this paper, a total of 1688 trees growing on the Mazak landslide in the Moravskoslezke Beskydy Mts. and 100 reference trees growing out of the landslide area were analysed.

Investigation of fractured rock aquifer in South China using electrical resistivity tomography and self-potential methods.

TL;DR: Li et al. as mentioned in this paper used 2D electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and self-potential (SP) in combination with joint profile method (JPM) and boreholes to delineate the subsurface geological units, detect the fracture/fault zones in hard rock, monitor the groundwater flow, and estimate the groundwater reserves contained within the weathered terrain at a complex heterogeneous site of Huangbu, South Guangdong of China.

Geophysical characterization of the lithological control on the kinematic pattern in a large clayey landslide (Avignonet, French Alps)

TL;DR: In this article, new electrical prospecting all across the unstable area revealed the unexpected presence of a thick resistive layer covering the more elevated area and overlying the laminated clays, which is interpreted as the lower part of moraine deposits.
Journal ArticleDOI

High-resolution electrical resistivity tomography applied to patterned ground, Wedel Jarlsberg Land, south-west Spitsbergen

TL;DR: In this paper, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) was applied to three types of patterned ground in Wedel-Jarlsberg Land (Svalbard), carried out in late July 2012.

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.
Book

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.
