Exploring the potential of geophones for quantifying bedload tranpsort and river ice break up in the Canning River, Alaska ...
In this project, we installed two passive seismic stations along the Canning River on Alaska's North Slope to monitor river bedload transport and river ice breakup from 26 March to 31 July 2023. Each station consisted of a 4.5 Hz 3-channel geophone, a Centaur data logger, battery, and solar pan...

Summary: | In this project, we installed two passive seismic stations along the Canning River on Alaska's North Slope to monitor river bedload transport and river ice breakup from 26 March to 31 July 2023. Each station consisted of a 4.5 Hz 3-channel geophone, a Centaur data logger, battery, and solar panel. These sta(ons were installed on low river terraces 30-40 m away from the bank of the ac(ve river channel. To characterize signal propagation through the ground at these two stations, we conducted active seismic experiments using five SmartSolo nodes and manual signal generation with a sledge hammer and aluminum plate. We conducted active experiments at the end of the passive station deployment, on 28 and 31 July 2023. At each station, we arranged the single nodes in three arrays. For each array, we triggered 10 shots on one end of the array and 10 shots on the opposite end of the array, to analyze signal propagation through the substrate. Our goal is to use the active seismic experiment data to calibrate the ... |
