O emprego de métodos geofísicos na fase de investiga？？o confirmatória em cemitérios contaminados

inside of the administration of contaminated areas, the application of geophysical methods, in studies of contaminated area, constitutes a confirmatory methodology. this procedure - more precisely the electrical resistivity method through the techniques of the vertical electric sounding and electrical imaging techniques, was applied at vila rezendea€tms cemetery, piracicaba, s？o paulo, brazil, to investigate and to map the contamination of the cemetery for necrochorume. the results indicate a depth of water table among 3.1 and 5.1 m, with two flow directions, being one to sw and another to se. so the probable contamination plumes, that have the same directions of underground flow, as for the conductive anomalies verified at the geoelectrics sections confirm the suspicions of contamination in the area.
