Abstract:

The stability of the dam can be compromised by water erosion and seepage, which primarily affect the resistivity distribution underground. Seepage pathways in the dam are detected through electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), utilizing variations in resistivity for delineation. The 2D profiles show that the resistivity structure of the dam is relatively higher resistivity values (100~400Ωm), while the seepage paths exhibit significantly lower resistivity values (10–50 Ω m). it can outline five seepage paths.
