We have generated the map from time domain reflectometer (TDR) of hilly area and don't have much knowledge in analyzing the images.
What inference that can we expect from the three different catchment (as attached) in hydrological sense.
Is these images gives us any other information?
The data belongs to hilly area with three different catchments, so I feel that you can interpret it from runoff - recharge aspect which will contribute in hydrological sense as well.
The areas shown in low resistivity colours are favourable for recharge where as high resistivity will be more prone to runoff.
Depth also must be taken into consideration while interpreting this data.
I think this depends on the scope of your analysis. Why did you conduct the TDR measurements ? The response should also depend on the texture of the soil in which the measurement has taken place.
I had a short look at your results. It seems to me that these are not TDR measurements but ERT measurements that have been inverted with RES2DINV. You can try to relate the images of electrical resistivity to soil layering or water content, although the latter can be quite challenging.
