Abstract

A controversial and a highly debated issue has been estimated the hydrogeological properties of aquifers at the system scale from the geoelectrical parameters that characterize them due to the lack of a theory that supports the existence of functional relationship between geoelectrical parameters and hydrogeological properties. Equations that support a theory that back up the existence of such relationships are developed in this paper.
