Abstract
Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) profiles have<br>been recorded in the coastal region of Lagoinha, in Ceará<br>State, NE Brazil, to investigate internal structures and<br>facies of the partially buried sedimentary units. GPR<br>profiles show reflection patterns which can be assigned<br>to the lithified sandstones of Barreiras Formation<br>(Tertiary) and beach rocks (Quaternary). Furthermore,<br>vibra-cores were collected to correlate GPR reflections<br>with changes in subsurface lithologies.
