PW2 Pumping: March 18 thru March 22, 2020

Abstract

Processed Coherence-length-gated Microwave Photonics Interferometry (CMPI) distributed vertical strain on March 18 through March 22, 2020 at the hydromechanical test facility located at the Clemson University Simpson Station research facility in Central, South Carolina, USA. This includes ambient data in addition to a pumping test performed between 14:31-20:31 EST on 3/22/2020 from Pumping Well 2 (PW2). These data are from a strain ribbon that was deployed in the vadose zone at approximately 34.670130°N, -82.729524°E from the ground surface to a depth of 8m in saprolite containing weak reflectors pairs were placed every 0.85 m along the fiber. Each weak reflector pair forms a 15 cm cavity strain meter. Strain unit: meters/meter (strain). Sampling rate 0.1 Hz. Each column corresponds to the strain data taken at a depth d from the ground surface. c1: d = 1.00m c2: d = 1.85m c3: d = 2.70m c4: d = 3.55m (large demodulation error) c5: d = 4.40m c6: d = 5.25m c7: d = 6.10m (large demodulation error) c8: d = 6.95m
