Ecological Systems and Devices Annotation << Back THE GEOECOLOGICAL EVALUATION OF URBAN AREAS BIOINDICATING METHOD (FOR EXAMPLE VORONEZH) L.B. Volkomirskaya O.A. Gulevich The task of non-invasive control and observation of groundwater location and condition receives increasing attention because any impact on the subsurface structure that include drilling may cause disastrous effects: water contamination, riverbed change, drain etc. The algorithms for modelling of water contamination scattering are constructed to develop management strategies of risk of groundwater contamination. The paper reviews an approach to monitoring of location of groundwater and water contamination based on the measurement of electrophysical parameters of underground layers using GROT 12 superpowerful monopulse georadars. Examples of groundwater detection in regions with different geological structures of the subsurface section are presented. Characteristics of the equipment used for the determination of underground water inclusions at different depths are provided. Examples of ecological monitoring of water bodies for the control of fresh water pollution are presented. Keywords: GPR; georadar; water table; water pollution.
