Induced Polarization Measurement As A Complimentary Means To Evaluate Aquifer Transport Properties

This paper briefly reviews the current state of the<br>art in time domain and frequency domain Induced<br>Polarization measurements for aquifer evaluation,<br>with special reference to shaly sandstone aquifers.<br>We provide mathematical foundation to some of<br>the empirical observations described in this<br>respect. Then, the general conceptual aquifer<br>model proposed earlier for shaly granular aquifer,<br>is extended to Induced Polarization as a possible<br>means for fast estimation of the aquifer hydraulic<br>conductivity, complimentary to the values<br>estimated from resistivity data.
