Abstract:
There are in the literature several examples of experiences for detection of buried structures,
“bothin Physical (e.g. Apparao, et al,, 1992, 1997 a and b) and computer modelling (Coggon,
1973). The objective of the present study was the evaluation of DC resistivity surveys
limitations for detection of a buried resistive structure in a natural environment. To fulfil this
Objective, several profiles using Wem er Continuous Vertical Electrical Soundings (CVES)
and Dipole-Dipole atray were performed in a landfill for a highway in Portugal.
