PoroTomo: Horizontal Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) Measurements During an M 2.3 Explosion

Metadata Updated: May 3, 2024

Included here are Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) data collected by the horizontal DAS array at Brady's Hot Springs Geothermal Field. The system recorded this data during an M 2.3 explosion at the Nevada Test Site (NTS), which is located approximately 400km southeast of the field. On December 19, 2018, a Silixa iDAS interrogator continuously acquired data on single-mode fibers, starting approximately two hours prior to the detonation and extending until 15 minutes after the event. This dataset comprises separate SEG-Y files that span the entire recording interval.

The measurement fiber was part of the PoroTomo experiment and is horizontally emplaced in alluvial fan gravels at a depth of approximately one meter for a distance of more than 2.5 km in a zig-zag pattern. Exact coordinates of this DAS surface array are provided in the attached GDR dataset below. The iDAS interrogator channel spacing is 1.021 m and gauge length is 10 m. Concurrent Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) measurements made with a Silixa XT on the multi-mode fibers aided in calibrating the DAS measurements.
