Summary

A continuous resistivity profiling (CRP) survey was conducted in a 1.2-mile reach of the Similkameen River upstream of Enloe Dam in December 2021 in Washington State. The survey was performed to characterize the resistivity of the water column and subbottom materials using the CRP method. The survey consisted of eight longitudinal profiles roughly equivalent in length and conducted in the right, left and center of the channel. In this survey, a 100-m cable with 11 electrodes spaced 10 m apart and outfitted with floatation aids was towed behind a boat at speeds of 1-1.5 m/s and data were collected using the dipole-dipole array type. In this configuration, two electrodes nearest the boat transmitted electric current into the water and [...]

Purpose

The CRP data were collected to determine the resistivity of subbottom materials in the reservoir behind Enloe Dam on the Similkameen River and allow for interpretation of the sediment-bedrock interface.
