Studies of the Electrical Resistivity Tomography Monitoring of the Issyk-Ata Fault Zone (Northern Tien Shan) by Rybin Anatoly, Bataleva Elena, Zabinyakova Olga, Nepeina Kseniia

“…Using the analysis of difference pseudo-sections of apparent resistivity, constructed based on the results of ERT monitoring, the most informative pseudo-depth interval from the point of view of geoelectric activity was determined for all three monitoring profiles. Accordingly, for a pseudo-depth of 24 m on each monitoring profile, an assessment was made of the geodynamic activity of these sections of the Issyk-Ata fault based on an analysis of the magnitude of two parameters: the amplitude of apparent resistivity variations and the correlation coefficient of electrical resistivity variations with lunar-solar solid tides. …”
