Summary | The main object of our study are using suitable and fast tools of the Geoscience to evaluate the environmental impacts on the surrounding Qarun Protected Area (QPA) and natural resources. To achievement this target, Nuclear Magnetic Ressonnance (NMR) and Audio Magnetotelluric (AMT) were carried out on the suggested area for the first time in Egypt. In addition, land magnetic profile was conducted using GEM magnetometer (Overhauser-19, Canada). The daily variation of magnetic field is corrected using Misallat Magnetic observatory that is located at Kom Oshem village beside the Qarun Lake (about 25 km). The results of NMR and AMT are conformed the depths of water table between 10 meters near Qarun Lake and 120 near Qatrani mountain. |
