2017-334-FAContinuous Resistivity Profiler (CRP)
A CRP is a geophysical instrument used to measure the electrical resistivity of sediments and pore water beneath the seafloor or riverbed while moving continuously along a survey line. This technique is widely applied in coastal and marine geology for mapping subsurface features.
