U.S.-Czechoslovakia Research on Aquifer Transport PropertiesUsing Geoelectric Methods

内布拉斯加州大学的William Kelly博士和布拉格查尔斯大学的Stanislav Mares博士之间的这项美国-捷克斯洛伐克合作研究项目的主要目标是扩大地表地电的量化能力，以估计含水层的运移特性。研究人员计划1)为交通测量建立适当的地电模型；2)测试模型，看看直流地表地电方法可以确定什么分辨率的交通属性；3)在实际现场测试该方法。将采用适当的方法组合，包括剖面法、测深法、混合法和埋地电极法。预计研究人员将努力开发一种方法，将地电测量数据与生产井测量数据结合起来，以确定含水层的性质，以评估井口区，并通过测量污染运动来确定运输性质。这一含水层运输性质项目通过使美国和东欧的顶尖专家能够将互补的人才结合在一起，并在共同感兴趣和能力很强的领域汇集研究资源，从而实现了促进科学知识的计划目标。

The primary objective of this US-Czechoslovak Cooperative research project between Dr. William Kelly of University of Nebraska and Dr. Stanislav Mares of Charles University, Prague is to extend the quantitative capabilities of surface geoelectrics for estimating aquifer transport properties. The researchers plan 1) to establish appropriate geoelectrical models for transport measure- ments; 2) to test the models to see to what resolution transport properties can be determined by direct current surface geoelectrical methods; and 3) to test the methodology on an actual field site. An appropriate combination of methods will be employed including profiling, sounding, mise-a-la-masse, and buried electrode. The researchers' efforts are expected to develop a methodology that could be used to combine data from geoelectrical measurements with measurements from production wells to determine the properties of aquifers for evaluation of wellhead areas and the transport properties from measurements of pollution movement. This project in aquifer transport properties fulfills the program objective of advancing scientific knowledge by enabling leading experts in the United States and Eastern Europe to combine complementary talents and pool research resources in areas of strong mutual interest and competence.
