Analysis of some error-causing factors in two-dimensional geoelectrical studies and providing a solution to minimize them by Hosein Moghaddasi, Mohsen Moghaddasi, Ahmad Neyamadpour

“…When ‘n’ is equal to 6 there are reasonably high sensitivity values to a depth of about 3 to 4 meters between the C1 current and the P1 potential electrode. When ‘n’ is increased to 12, the zone of high sensitivity values becomes increasingly more concentrated below the P1-P2 dipole in an even shallower region. …”
