We have developed a transient electromagnetic (TEM) study in the noisy urban environment of the megacity Santiago de Chile. Our investigation characterizes the electrical conductivity structure of the Santiago Basin down to 300 m depth, providing key information about the sedimentary infill, hydrogeologic aspects, and geomorphological units. In total, 52 TEM soundings were recorded over roughly 900 km2. We identified different transient characteristics and noise patterns, spatially correlated to the investigation area. This step allowed classification of the soundings into three groups: highly distorted data, transients severely affected by cultural electromagnetic noise sources, and good-quality data with low noise levels. Conventional 1D inversion techniques were then used to derive resistivity depth models. The models were interpreted using sedimentary units, alluvial fan, static groundwater level information, and also were verified using borehole data. Based on 1D models, different minimum sedimentary thicknesses are observed, ranging between 50 and 300 m in depth. The average derived sedimentary thickness is approximately 210 m. In addition, seven soundings indicated the basement. These are mostly located toward the periphery of the Santiago Basin. We found a high conductive zone toward the north and a low-conductive area toward the south of the basin. The southern area is characterized by the absence of conductive layers at a depth between 100 and 150 m. This is likely related to the presence of a thick gravel layer and the absence of shallow clay layers acting as aquitards. The resistivity distribution and the sedimentary thickness obtained for this noisy and urban environment are key inputs for groundwater research as the water supply becomes more limited, specifically in central Chile. The overall consistency of the derived subsurface models highlights the suitability of the TEM method for investigating urban noise environments.

城市噪声环境中的环路源瞬态电磁波:以智利圣地亚哥为例

我们已经在智利圣地亚哥大城市嘈杂的城市环境中进行了瞬态电磁(TEM)研究。我们的研究描绘了圣地亚哥盆地低至300 m深度的电导率结构,提供了有关沉积物充填,水文地质方面和地貌单位的关键信息。总共在大约900 km 2上记录了52个TEM测深。我们确定了与研究区域在空间上相关的不同瞬态特征和噪声模式。通过此步骤,可以将声音分为三类:高度失真的数据,受文化电磁噪声源严重影响的瞬态信号以及低噪声水平的高质量数据。然后使用常规的一维反演技术来推导电阻率深度模型。使用沉积单位,冲积扇,静态地下水位信息对模型进行了解释,并使用井眼数据进行了验证。基于一维模型,观察到不同的最小沉积厚度,深度在50至300 m之间。平均得出的沉积厚度约为210 m。此外,地下有七个探测声。这些大多位于圣地亚哥盆地的外围。我们在盆地的北部发现了一个高导电区域,在盆地的南部发现了一个低导电区域。南部地区的特征是在100至150 m的深度不存在导电层。这可能与存在厚砾石层和不存在充当阿奎塔德的浅粘土层有关。由于供水变得越来越有限,特别是在智利中部,在这种嘈杂的城市环境中获得的电阻率分布和沉积厚度是地下水研究的关键输入。导出的地下模型的整体一致性突出了TEM方法对研究城市噪声环境的适用性。我们在盆地的北部发现了一个高导电区域,在盆地的南部发现了一个低导电区域。南部地区的特征是在100至150 m的深度不存在导电层。这可能与存在厚砾石层和不存在充当阿奎塔德的浅粘土层有关。由于供水变得越来越有限,特别是在智利中部,在这种嘈杂的城市环境中获得的电阻率分布和沉积厚度是地下水研究的关键输入。导出的地下模型的整体一致性突出了TEM方法对研究城市噪声环境的适用性。我们在盆地的北部发现了一个高导电区域,在盆地的南部发现了一个低导电区域。南部地区的特征是在100至150 m的深度不存在导电层。这可能与存在厚砾石层和不存在充当阿奎塔德的浅粘土层有关。由于供水变得越来越有限,特别是在智利中部,在这种嘈杂的城市环境中获得的电阻率分布和沉积厚度是地下水研究的关键输入。导出的地下模型的整体一致性突出了TEM方法对研究城市噪声环境的适用性。这可能与存在厚砾石层和不存在充当阿奎塔德的浅粘土层有关。由于供水变得越来越有限,特别是在智利中部,在这种嘈杂的城市环境中获得的电阻率分布和沉积厚度是地下水研究的关键输入。导出的地下模型的整体一致性突出了TEM方法对研究城市噪声环境的适用性。这可能与存在厚砾石层和不存在充当阿奎塔德的浅粘土层有关。由于供水变得越来越有限,特别是在智利中部,在这种嘈杂的城市环境中获得的电阻率分布和沉积厚度是地下水研究的关键输入。导出的地下模型的整体一致性突出了TEM方法对研究城市噪声环境的适用性。
