What Does EIP Stand For?
EIP stands for Electric Induced Polarization For Subsurface Characterization
EIP, or Electric Induced Polarization for Subsurface Characterization, is a geophysical method used to investigate subsurface structures and materials by measuring the electrical response of the ground to induced electrical currents. This technique helps identify the presence and distribution of minerals, fluids, and contaminants, making it valuable for applications in engineering, environmental studies, and resource exploration. By analyzing the polarizability of subsurface materials, EIP provides insights into geological formations, aiding in informed decision-making in various fields.
