THE EVALUATION OF SOIL SALINIZATION WITH THE METHOD OF ELECTRIC VERTICAL SOUNDING

Abstract

The studies carried out on maroon and grey salt soils show the dependence of the electrical resistance of soils not only on the degree of salinisation, but also on soil moisture and temperature, which determine the change in VES parameters over soil horizons and micro-relief elements. It has been proven that the value of VES also depends on the type of soil salinity, soil density and organic matter content. This should be taken into account when evaluating data from the electrical vertical sounding of soils.
