Includes bibliographies and index.
Machine generated contents note: Foreword; Preface; 1. Fundamentals of the self-potential method; 2. Development of a fundamental theory; 3. Laboratory investigations; 4. Forward and inverse modeling; 5. Applications to geohazards; 6. Application to water resources; 7. Application to hydrothermal systems; 8.

"The self-potential method is a simple yet innovative process, enabling non-intrusive assessment and imaging of disturbances in electrical currents of conductive subsurface materials, by measuring the electrical response at the ground's surface or in boreholes. It has an increasing number of applications, from mapping fluid flow in the subsurface of the Earth, to understanding the plumbing systems of geothermal fields, and detecting preferential flow paths in earth dams and embankments"--
