Abstract

These folders contain geophysical data from the Boulder Creek, CO site of the Bedrock Cluster of NSF's Critical Zone Collaboration Network. This project, funded by grant NSF EAR-2012353, aims to provide the scientific community with unprecedented access to, data from, and knowledge of the deep CZ and its feedbacks with surface processes. This project tests a simple conceptual model: that CZ structure, evolution, and processes are strongly influenced by ​bedrock ​conditions at the base of the CZ, including mineralogy, ambient stress, and inherited fractures, and that deep CZ processes are in turn influenced by surface processes like erosion, subsurface flow, and ecosystem productivity.

Data included in this folder encompass seismic refraction and ground Lidar data.

Data and File Overview


These folders contain geophysical, geochemical, and geomorphological data from the Boulder Creek study area of the Bedrock Cluster of NSF's Critical Zone Collaboration Network and were collected during the field campaign of 2021. This project, funded by grant NSF EAR-2012353, aims to provide the scientific community with unprecedented access to, data from, and knowledge of the deep CZ and its feedbacks with surface processes.

The study area data are organized based on the data acquisition instruments, here Seismic and LiDAR. 
There is also a map file (GordonGulch_seismic_plan_2021.pdf) with the planned seismic line locations (see figure below). Not every planned line was acquired. The Seismic folder contains GPS locations of the seismic lines. Each subfolder contains individual seismic lines. A recorder’s spreadsheet for each line is also located in the respective subfolders.


The seismic data were recorded using Geometrics 24 channel Geodes and saved to DAT files. Refer to the OBSPY (https://docs.obspy.org)- a Python-based framework for processing seismic data as a way to convert the binary format to, for example SEGY or any other popular seismic data format.  Some files are zipped to reduce the total number of files per folder.


The LiDAR folder contains files with XYZ coordinates of the lines.The coordinates are in WGS84 UTM zone 13N. These files can be used to reconstruct the actual location of the seismic lines.
