• Abstract:
  MS&T acquired electrical resistivity tomography profiles in immediate proximity to a newly-developed sinkhole in Nixa Missouri The sinkhole has closed a well-traveled municipal roadway and threatens proximal infrastructure. The intent of this investigation was to characterize the subsurface expression of the sinkhole so that appropriate mitigation efforts can be designed and implemented
