Abstract
Summary
In semiarid zones, agricultural activity exerts much pressure on the aquifers. Every year much water is utilised in crops; wells are overexploiting the aquifers which do not have enough recuperation time. In this study, the “Minor Sea” baths all the coast of the overexploited aquifer what is promoting the intrusion of the seawater in the continent. The principal aim of the paper is to characterise the underground layers of an agricultural terrain located near to the cost and determine the geometry of the marine intrusion by using Electrical Resistivity Tomography and boreholes.
