Abstract
The electrical resistivity method has been a valuable tool used in the discovery of ground‐water recharge facilities with percolation capacities in excess of 100,000 acrefeer per year. The procedures used in doing the field work and the methods of plotting the data are described using a typical area where studies were made. Correlations of soil types, recharge rates, and resistivity data for Santa Clara ‐County are included. Ground‐water level data from observation wells are used to measure the regional and long‐term effects of the ground‐water recharge program.Keywords
