Summary

This case study presents the results of a geophysical survey that was carried out in 2008-9 at Omalosplateau in Chania, Western Crete, Greece. During this survey we applied seismic methods as well aselectrical tomography in order to image the active karstic structures of the Omalos polje. The resistivityand seismic velocity sections image properly karstic structures such as a doline to the south. In additionthe geoelectrical sections outline the metamorphic carbonates relief (Tripali unit and Plattenkalk group),which appears highly irregular. At Omalos polje the thickness of post-Mesozoic deposits (terra rossa,clays, sands and gravels) ranges from 40-130 m.
