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.

On the spatio-temporal dynamics of soil moisture at the field scale

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors review the state of the art of characterizing and analyzing spatio-temporal dynamics of soil moisture content at the field scale and discuss measurement techniques that have become available in recent years and that provide unique opportunities to characterize field scale soil moisture variability with high spatial and temporal resolution.
Journal ArticleDOI

Electrical resistivity tomography technique for landslide investigation: A review

TL;DR: A review of the main results obtained by applying 2D and 3D Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) for the investigation of a wide spectrum of landslide phenomena which affected various geological formations and occurred in different geographic areas is presented in this paper.

Geophysical Monitoring of Moisture-Induced Landslides: A Review

TL;DR: Whiteley et al. as discussed by the authors presented a review of the state of the art of geophysical monitoring applied to moisture-induced landslides, focusing on technical and practical uses of time-lapse methods in geophysics applied to monitoring moistureinduced landslide.
Journal ArticleDOI

Life and death of slow-moving landslides

TL;DR: In the most destructive and catastrophic landslide events, rocks, soil and fluids can travel at speeds approaching several tens of metres per second as discussed by the authors, but slow-moving landslides rarely claim lives, they can cause major damage to infrastructure and sometimes fail catastrophically, transitioning into fast moving landslides that can result in thousands of casualties.

The simulation of finite ERT electrodes using the complete electrode model

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present an approach for numerical computation applying the complete electrode model (CEM), which is known from medical imaging, and verify the modeling of electrical potential using an analytical solution for a perfectly coupled half-ellipsoid current source.

Detection of soil moisture and vegetation water abstraction in a Mediterranean natural area using electrical resistivity tomography

TL;DR: In this paper, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) was used to measure soil moisture availability and plant water use in a Mediterranean natural area, and the authors found that ERT is a useful tool for measuring soil conditions, providing information on the spatial patterns within the soil and reaching depths otherwise inaccessible.

Application of geophysical measurements for assessing the role of fissures in water infiltration within a clay landslide (Trièves area, French Alps)

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the role of fissures network in water infiltration in the numerous clay landslides of the Trieves area (French Alps) and found that the system of imbricated fissure drains water from the surface down to the shallow slip surfaces at 5 and 10-15 m.
Journal ArticleDOI

Estimation of clay content in soil based on resistivity modelling and laboratory measurements

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors developed a technique for estimating clay content that consists of the minimization of the difference between the theoretically calculated and measured soil resistivities as a function of water salinity.
