Geophysics, a science that studies the physical properties and processes of the Earth, plays a fundamental role in solving the challenges related to water and food security. It connects natural systems to human demands by providing essential data for resource management, risk forecasting, and decision-making. Geophysical techniques, such as resistivity, are used to locate aquifers and gui…
Biogeophysics has been consolidated as the area of geophysics that studies the effect of microbial activity on the signature of geophysical parameters. Advances in biogeophysics have revolutionized the field of shallow geophysics by incorporating the mechanisms of interaction between effects and due to biological processes. In recent years the magnetic properties of contaminated areas hav…
The Spectral Induced Polarization method (SIP) has been considered a promising methodology for hydrogeophysics and environmental studies. Nordsiek and Weller (2008) developed a new approach to fit SIP data, called Debye Decomposition (DD), where magnitude and phase spectra are considered a superposition of distinct Debye spectra, characterized by a specific chargeability (obtained by mini…
O interesse na aplicação do fenômeno da polarização induzida (IP) para a investigação de processos ambientais tem crescido nos últimos anos. Os maiores problemas ambientais da atualidade incluem, entre outros, locais de disposição de resíduos originados por diversas atividades. Aterros de resíduos sólidos e atividades industriais que produzam e disponham resíduos de hidrocarbonetos sobre …
