A Self-Contained Diver Operated Conductivity/Resistivity Probe,
Abstract
The development and function of a small, diver-held, easy-to-use electrical conductivity probe developed to support Navy shallow water environmental surveys is described. The probe was designed to measure directly seafloor conductivity or resistivity, temperature and depth of sensor embedment. Geotechnical/geoacoustic properties derived indirectly from the resistivity probe data included sediment porosity, wet bulk density and sediment property variability.
