This is a pilot project to test feasibility of identifying seismic tremor associated with discharge into an aquifer. We are proposing to conduct three recharge experiments near Preston, MN. The site includes a sinkhole and spring that are ~100 m apart. Artificial recharge events will be conducted by filling a pool with water and then releasing the water into the sinkhole to produce a pressure pulse. For each experiment, the water will be released at a different rate to test aquifer response to a range of recharge rates. We will use a variety of geophysical sensors to probe the response to the recharge events in multiple ways.more » « less

The proposed study aims to deploy seismometers, tiltmeters, and other equipment at the Santa Fe River Sink-Rise system in FL to monitor geophysical responses to recharge events over a two-year period. Geophysical data collected as part of this project will leverage ongoing data collection efforts to enable the interpretation of geophysical responses that arise from hydrologic processes. The overall goal of this remote sensing study is to develop new techniques using data collected at the surface to identify the location of conduits and other subsurface features as well as to provide constraints on flow and hydrologic processes in karst aquifers.more » « less
