Geophysical investigation to characterize geological risks: Detection zones of dissolution in karst areas of Algeria
2011
The use of geophysical methods in environmental applications has taken a considerable role in
countries which are affected by major risks such as landslides, solution cavities as well as seismic
hazard. Algeria is one of the countries affected by such risks. Hence, geophysical studies in several
areas had been used for site characterization in karstic environment that have been chosen for the
establishment of infrastructure projects (residential buildings, highway, etc…). The geophysical
survey in most of the studied sites revealed the presence of cavities which have also been noticed
during the foundation excavations.
