English term or phrase: apparent resistivity
I am translating a software used for geological surveys and I found that the term "apparent resistivity" may refer to a mathematical formula, but I can´t find the translation to Spanish. The sentences where I have found this term are:

1. Calculation of apparent resistivity

2. Layered earth modelling using AMIRA suite, including apparent resistivity processing for defining seed models

Thank you!
