A New Method for the Interpretation of Induced Polarization Data - the TAU-Transform Approach

P049 A NEW METHOD FOR THE INTERPRETATION OF INDUCED POLARIZATION DATA – THE TAU-TRANSFORM APPROACH E. TURAI and M. DOBRÓKA University of Miskolc Department of Geophysics 3515 Miskolc Egyetemváros Hungary Summary 1 In the paper the TAU-transform method is introduced for the determination of the timeconstant spectrum of the polarizability curves received by time-domain IP measurements. An easy and quick inversion algorithm is also presented for practical use. Some results of the interpretation of field data collected over Hungarian waste sites are shown in case histories and – based on the time-coefficient spectra- the characterisation of the main components of
