Schlumberger resistivity survey of the Amargosa Desert, Southern Nevada
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:59824
During 1978-1980, the US Geological Survey carried out a geoelectric survey consisting of 136 Schlumberger resistivity soundings in the Amargosa Desert, Nevada, in support of hydrological studies being performed by the Water Resources Division in this area. These studies are part of the Radwaste program effort to find a suitable site for nuclear waste storage within the Nevada Test Site, north of the Amargosa Desert. The aim of the geoelectric survey was to define basement structure and basin-fill characteristics, which may or may not be influencing the hydrological systems of the region.
