The purpose of this work is to evaluate whether azimuthal resistivity surveys (ARS) provide diagnostic information for mapping preferred hydraulic conductivity directions in unconsolidated sediments as they do in fractures/jointed media. Nineteen azimuthal resistivity surveys (ARS) were conducted in three different places within a shallow, unconsolidated, sand and gravel aquifer located at the Michigan Integrated Remediation Technology Laboratory (MIRTL). Two of the three places where soundings were conducted lie along the flow path where a controlled tracer release using bromide took place. The ARS were conducted using a Wenner array, with electrode separations (AB/3) that ranged from 4.0–11.0 meters. Electrical anisotropy ratios gave a range of 1.08–1.37 for all 19 soundings. Ground water direction of the induced plume was along the regional flow path as determined for the period from July 1996, using continuous water level recorders. Thus, the observed electrical anisotropy ratios were not significant ...
