Contribution of the electrical tomography in the protection of tradiotional wells at Mirabello , eastern Crete

Abstract

Summarization: This paper focuses on the use of geological and geophysical tools in order to contribute in creating a cultural route from the town of Neapoli to the coastal areas, through the cisterns of Epano Mirabello, Eastern Crete. The first stage of this study involves the restoration and use of the threatened traditional wells and cisterns. In order to achieve this, a detailed geological mapping of the area and a geoelectrical survey were conducted to estimate the thickness of the soil layer (impermeable substrates). The methodology used in this paper provided valuable information regarding the subsoil condition and the sources of the cisterns' water supply system, helping in the proper planning of the cultural route.Παρουσιάστηκε στο: Protection and restoration of the environment X
