1.5 SIGNIFICANCE OF STUDY
The
study on the delineation of aquifer depth and its characterization
using geophysical method will be of immense benefit to the whole country
in the sense that it will educate the government in the different
techniques to delineate aquifer depth. It will also guide them on the
topological area that is suitable for public borehole establishment.
Finally, the study will contribute to the body of existing literature
and knowledge in this field of study and provide the basis for further
research.
1.6 SCOPE OF STUDY
The study on delineation of acquifer depths and its characterization is limited to geophysical method.
1.7 LIMITATION OF STUDY
Financial
constraint- Insufficient fund tends to impede the efficiency of the
researcher in sourcing for the relevant materials, literature or
information and in the process of data collection (internet,
questionnaire and interview).
Time constraint- The researcher will
simultaneously engage in this study with other academic work. This
consequently will cut down on the time devoted for the research work.
1.8 DEFINITION OF TERMS
DelineationTo describe or mark the edge of something:
AquiferAn aquifer is an underground layer of water-bearing permeable rock, rock fractures or unconsolidated materials.
DepthsThe distance from the top or surface to the bottom of something.
Characterisation A description of the distinctive nature or features of someone or something.
GeophysicalIs
a subject of natural science concerned with the physical processes and
physical properties of the Earth and its surrounding space environment,
and the use of quantitative methods for their analysis.
Method A particular procedure for accomplishing or approaching something, especially a systematic or established one.
