Abstract
Three 2D electrical conductivity profiles have been deployed over an exposed, historic manure mound located in a semi industrial/urban setting in west Fargo, North Dakota, USA. The 2D electrical Conductivity imaging, together with six environmental soil borings, allowed the delineation of the manure stockpile that has risen concerns about its probable environmental impacts on the air, soils, and groundwater. The manure pile has significant topographic relief, which has been accounted in the 2D smooth inversion. Up to 80 m of the vadose zone have been imaged. The interface between the manure repository and the natural Holocene heterolitic soils is detected successfully. Leachates and a fracture zone occur under the manure pile.
