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.

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.

A numerical comparison of 2D resistivity imaging with 10 electrode arrays

TL;DR: In this article, numerical simulations are used to compare the resolution and efficiency of 2D resistivity imaging surveys for 10 electrode arrays, including pole-pole (PP), pole-dipole (PD), half-Wenner (HW), Wenner-α (WN), Schlumberger (SC), dipole-dipsole (DD), WenNER-β (WB), γ -array (GM), multiple or moving gradient array (GD) and midpoint-potential-referred measurement (MPR) arrays.

Practical techniques for 3D resistivity surveys and data inversion1

TL;DR: In this article, a smoothing-constrained least-squares inversion method is used for the data interpretation and the computing time required by this technique is greatly reduced by using a homogeneous half-space as the starting model so that the Jacobian matrix of partial derivatives can be calculated analytically.

DC Resistivity and Induced Polarization Methods

TL;DR: In this paper, the relationship between direct current resistivity and hydrological properties, such as porosity and moisture content, is investigated. But the applications of induced polarization methods in hydrogeophysics have been limited.
