Abstract

We applied electrical resistivity survey using modified pole-pole array and small-loop electromagnetic survey to delineate the zone of seawater inflow through a tide embankment. The tide embankment is generally affected by tidal variation and has low resistivity characteristic due to the high saturation of seawater. For this reason, the electrical resistivity survey using modified pole-pole array, which is relatively more effective to the conductive media, was carried out to detect the inflow zone of seawater and small-loop electromagnetic survey using multi-frequency with 300 to 20,010 Hz was conducted. As a result of both electrical resistivity survey using modified pole-pole array and small -loop electromagnetic survey, these survey methods are found to be quite effective for investigation of seawater inflow zone in the sea dike.
