Paper Title
Application of Electrical Resistivity Method (ERM) for Groundwater Exploration (A Literature Study)
Authors

Abstract
The electrical resistivity method (ERM) has long been utilized in groundwater exploration and it is a largely used geophysical technique in various parts of the world. The electrical resistivity method is based on the principle that the electrical resistivity of a material is a function of water content. The electrical resistivity method was used to determine the depth to the water table, saturated thickness of the aquifer, and hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer. The ERM is a helpful tool for groundwater exploration because it can non-invasively measure the resistivity of subsurface materials. The electrical resistivity method has been used to map the subsurface structure of aquifers, locate groundwater resources, and monitor changes in groundwater systems.
Keywords- ERM, Groundwater Exploration, Resistivity method & Potential zones
