The ground soiling by petroleum and other organic liquids: detection and study by GPR and seismic

One of the main kinds of environmental pollution is the pollution of the ground with petroleum and other organic fluids, incJuding chemical wastes. Emission from oil wells, breakage of pipelines, leakages from huge reservoirs at the refineries, chemical plants, military bases, filling stations, airports etc- at first should belocalized and observed. Among geophysical methods to be used for studying such pollutions preferenee is given by us to impulse wave methods-GPR [1] and seismic. Although there are principal differences in the character of waves, both methods allow to make the zones of pollution contrast enough at the images obtained.
