Objective
The general approach of the project is to test the geophysical methods on already investigated contaminated sites
on which complementary analytical measurements by core sampling will be carried out to better characterize
the spatial distribution of contaminants.
Two sites will be investigated:
-a former coke plant (HAP main contamination)
-a closed petroleum products depot (gasoline - fuel contamination).
The physical parameters (electric permittivity and electrical resistivity) which are involved in the selected
geophysical methods (GPR, RMT, ET) are sensitive to both NAPL-and water-content. Hence, geophysical
measurements will be carried out on both sites in different hydric states of soil (winter and summer campaigns).
The interest of combining the three geophysical method is:
-decreasing the uncertainty in the pollution recognition
-separating the structural effects from the pollution effects using the different sensitivities of each
method related to the kinds of soils
-compensating the methods weaknesses by their complementarity -reaching a robust cross-interpretation allowing to give a better spatial distribution of the contaminated
volume.
The end-product methodology will be defined as the combination of geophysical methods and data processing
methods which will give the best field-correlated results.2

Funding Scheme
Funding scheme (or “Type of Action”) inside a programme with common features. It specifies: the scope of what is funded; the reimbursement rate; specific evaluation criteria to qualify for funding; and the use of simplified forms of costs like lump sums.
