Abstract
This thesis investigates the structural integrity and potential seepage within the embankments of an artificial water basin in the alpine region, specifically designed to support snowmaking for a ski resort. The study utilizes electrical resistivity tomography (ERT), seismic refraction and surface wave analyses to process two survey lines along the embankments. The geophysical data acquisition was carried out in the framework of the spoke “Digital and sustainable mountain” of the project NODES, funded by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan. The ERT results reveal varying saturation levels within the embankment materials, identifying a thin surface layer with high resistivity, indicative of unsaturation, followed by a deeper layer with potential water content.
Notably, a high resistivity anomaly near the drainage system suggests the presence of concrete structures or large boulders
