Unconventional geoelectrical methods to observe the diffusion processes of contaminants in porous media

A geophysical survey, based on unconventional geoelectrical prospecting methods, was carried out in a controlled test site located in Montalto Uffugo (CS), Southem Italy. The main objective of the study is to outline the complex geological features of subsurface and to gain information about the hydrogeological features of the investigated area. Subsequently, the geoelectrical measurements will be used to control the time evolution and spatial distribution of contaminants and to analyze the correlation between the soil resistivity and the hydraulic characteristics of aquifer.
