Hydrogeological conditions largely depend on the permeability of the geological environment. In areas with complex geological and tectonic conditions, the detection of hydraulic heterogeneity of the rocks and determination of groundwater-rich zones is a challenge for hydrogeological practice. The aim of the study is to analyze the geological and tectonic prerequisites for hydraulic heterogeneity of the sediments for the Gotse Delchev valley (Southwestern Bulgaria), which predetermine the degree of their water productivity. In order to obtain more precise data for specific sites, a geophysical survey was conducted. The Self-Potential method was chosen, which is one of the most commonly used techniques for applications for hydrogeological purposes. The results of the geophysical survey carried out in selected sites allowed to locate groundwater-rich zones, to establish the depth of occurrence of hard low permeable rocks, as well as to confirm the presence of faults.

The water movement in the soil contributes to entrainment of particles of varying sizes, and over time, some tendency for the orientation of this flow may occur. In the areas with particular soil characteristics, an internal discrete drainage network appears, that manifests differently depending on the causative factors. The aim of the recording and monitoring of this concentrated water flow movement that contributes to soil erosion as a pipe network through a geophysical method is to understand its evolution. Using a method such as the Self Potential (SP) allows the study of the piping processes in a quantitative manner. In the peripheral area of the Dognecei Mountains, specifically near the Doclin village, it was analyzed one such area in which this process occurs.It was analyzed the evolution of a site in periods with different climatic parameters which are the ones that act as the active elements.The amplitude of the SP values (mV) differs based on the causative environmental factors, with negative values in the dry period and positive values when the soil is wet, the values having fluctuation up to 15 mV. The piping processes contribute to soil degradation and the knowledge of the areas affected by this processes and particularly of the factors influencing its occurrence can be achieved with good results by using the Self Potential method.

Land movement occurs due to reduced soil strength which is affected by water pressure. The Self Potential (SP) method is a geoelectric method that can detect well the flow of groundwater. The Self Potential method can also be used to detect the presence of debris flow  in the form of weathered soil, tuff sand, cobble gravel and other rock fragments that have mixed with water. Based on the results of the SP measurement, debris flow has a medium SP with a value (3 - 12) mV, rock that has shifted (sandstone associated with andesite fragment) has a SP value <  2mV, while water seepage and water flow has an SP value (13 - 36) mV.
