Abstract
The subsurface resistivity layer parameters of 47 vertical geoelectrical soundings are analyzed for a rectangle shaped area of 70 km2 from the Gulf of Aqaba coast. For this purpose, the Dar-Zarrouk parameters i.e., (i) total longitudinal unit conductance, (ii) total transverse unit resistance and (iii) average longitudinal resistivity are used to determine the resistivity regime of the water bearing formations. The significance of these parameters is to establish a vision about the occurrence and distribution of water bodies, while dealing with complicated situations of resistivity ranges intermixing for saline, brackish and fresh water aquifers. The results obtained from the study area suggest that the Dar-Zarrouk parameters proved useful in providing confident solution to delineate water-bearing formations. The behavior of the Dar-Zarrouk parameters and its patterns in space over large areas with respect to the occurrence of water aquifer systems in the deltaic coastal area has been demonstrated.
