Potential groundwater exploration in use of 2-D Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) techniques at the Department of Agriculture Kelantan Research and Developmental platform Padang Raja Kelantan

2-D electrical resistivity has been a proper investigation survey for determination of subsurface geophysical in describing the complex features geology profile. In this study, an electrical resistivity survey was conducted at paddy cultivation area located in Melor, Kelantan, Malaysia. Since the en...
