A hydrogeophysical investigation of the Ain Mousa area, near Cairo, Egypt
Abstract The aim of this study was to determine the depth of the water-bearing strata in the Ain Mousa area and the source of the recharge. Five geophysical profiles were acquired and analyzed at four field stations. The interpretation of the geophysical data indicates that the study area consists of four geological units belonging to the Maadi Formation. The main water flows are through the intersection of two faults trending NW–SE and W–E. The hydrological studies included a hydrochemical analysis which indicated that the water is geologically recent and slightly saline.
