| Title | ERT surveys to investigate the hydrogeological system feeding the alimini piccolo lake |
| Abstract | The Alimini water system, located in south eastern part of Italy, named Salento peninsula, is constituted from two connected coastal lakes, Alimini Piccolo and Alimini Grande. Specifically, Alimini Piccolo is a small freshwater body, directly fed by rainfall and by shallow porous aquifer through of several springs. From '50s Alimini Piccolo provides the surrounding area with water for agriculture and domestic use. In June 2013, IRSA-CNR started a study concerning the quali-quantitative characterization of the hydrogeological system feeding the Alimini Piccolo, in order to investigate the potential for additional exploiting of the lake as a resource for drinking water. For the purpose, a monitoring system has been set up for an entire hydrological year. Continuous measurements of water level, electrical conductivity and temperature, such as quantitative and qualitative monitoring monthly campaigns both in groundwater and in the lake have been carried out. In order to support the above mentioned surveys, Electrical Resistivity Tomography (ERT) has been carried out to identify geological structures and hydrogeological features, to better understand the system feeding the Alimini Piccolo and to set the boundary conditions of the hydrological model useful to represent the water balance of the lake. |
