Abstract: | The second vertical derivatives of gravity and magnetic potential are widely used in geophysical prospecting because of their
better resolution. On the same basis an attempt has been made to obtain the expressions for the second vertical derivative
of the electrical potential and to compute its nature for comparison. Derivative responses over a two-layered earth and also
over an anticlinal structure have been computed and it is shown that the second vertical derivative sounding could be employed
for greater accuracy in finding out the thickness of such beds or the inclination of the sides of the anticline and its depth
when compared with normal resistivity sounding |
