Abstract

Abstract By using the electrical resistivity Wenner configuration, 22 sounding points were used to study the shallow subsurface geology along a proposed pass for construction of a flow convergence system in a part of Alexandria, Egypt. The study indicated that no abnormal hidden subsurface objects are present to prevent completion of the project. Lateral inhomogeneities are detected by differences in resistivity values. Some saturated limestone layers also are detected. The associated water may hinder the drilling activities. The geophysical data correlate with the results obtained from nearby boreholes.
