Abstract: In order to study environment interferences (excavation puddle and steel structure workshop) on the observation of georesistivity, we built a three-dimensinal finite element physical model of the interference based on electric sounding data and lithologic data at Xingji seismic station to do quantitative analysis. Both of excavation puddle and steel structure workshop are built at intermediate electrode N4 and the power supply electrode B4 in the measured area which is at minus sensitivity coefficient. The excavation puddle is a low resistivity body in summer when the water level is high, on the contrary, the excavation puddle is a high resistivity body in winter when the water level is low. Analyzed results of the model suggest that reverse of annual variation of georesistivity at N60°W direction was due to the seasonal changes of water storage in excavation puddle. Steel structure of brick factory is a low resistivity in the test area. The trend of rising change of the georesistivity in N60°W direction since April 2016 was caused by reconstruction of steel structure workshop.
