Abstract

    The world, including Iraq, suffer from the opportunity to obtain water sources, involves groundwater which is necessary for daily uses, agriculture and industry, it face many problems of environmental pollution, climate changes and the increasing in demand  due to growth in population .Groundwater is a source that present inside the voids and fractures in the rocks and various soils under the surface of the earth forming water reservoirs which can be investigated and detected to be used later to satisfy the needs of humanity. Geophysics is a branch of geological science, it  based on the theories of physics and their applications to detect the materials that make up the earth, including groundwater, so it is necessary to explain the foundations of the different methods necessary for those working  in this field, geophysical research representation especially those who conducted electromagnetic, electrical and self-potential methods  have proven that they are good and effective in detecting the locations, distribution and depth of groundwater.
