Geophysical investigation of transmissibility and hydrogeological properties of aquifer system: A case study of Edem, Eastern Nigeria

Geophysical investigation of transmissibility and hydrogeological properties of aquifer system: A case study of Edem, Eastern Nigeria

This research study aimed at investigating the transmissibility magnitude of hydrogeologic units of Edem employing a vertical electrical sounding technique. This was as a result of the rapid increase in population and failures of water scheme projects in Edem. Hydraulic properties used in characteri...
