Abstract

In the present study, an attempt was made to prepare vertical pseudo section of resistivity and generate possible resistivity models of the study area. Besides, the pseudo sections will facilitate understanding the variations of subsurface lithology and helpful to delineate potential freshwater aquifer zones. In the study area, less than 1m to <8m thickness is noticed in the major part and 8 to 21m is noticed in the central part & a stretch in the eastern part of the study area. High layer thickness of >21 is observed as spots in the eastern part of the study area.
