Popis: made near a surface conduit. This transparent zone was at least 1.5 m wide and extended over several meters depth. SP measurements near this conduit during a rainstorm revealed a peak-to-peak variation of 16 mV, suggesting SP may also be a viable method for mapping subsurface water movement in this well field. The overall implication of this work is that geophysical methods are valuable in delineating recharge points and shallow contaminant pathways, and should be used more extensively in this part of the Yucatan Peninsula to support groundwater investigations.
