From October 2016 to July 2018, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Maine Department of Transportation, collected surface, marine and borehole geophysical surveys to characterize the subsurface materials on land and under the water at a former mine facility in Brooksville, Maine. Three water-based geophysical methods were used to evaluate the geometry and composition of subsurface materials. Continuous seismic profiling (CSP) methods provide the depth to water bottom, and, when sufficient signal penetration can be achieved, delineate the depth to bedrock and subbottom materials. Continuous resistivity profiling (CRP) and frequency domain electromagnetics (FDEM) methods...

On June 5, 2015, transient electromagnetic (TEM) data were acquired on the baseball field at the East Falmouth, Massachusetts Elementary School approximately 30 m north the well MA-FWS-750. Transient electromagnetic induction (TEM) surveys provide resistivity soundings of the subsurface, which can be related to lithology and hydrogeology. Electrical current is cycled through a wire placed on the land surface in a transmitter loop (Tx), which in turn produces a static magnetic field. When the current is abruptly terminated, an instantaneous current is induced in the earth, and it moves downward and outward as the induced current decays with time. The decay is controlled by the resistivity of the earth. One or more...

In June 2017, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS)collected borehole geophysical logs to characterize the shallow alluvial aquifer in and near Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Borehole geophysical logs were collected from nine shallow boreholes to identify geophysical properties of the aquifer in the area surrounding the boreholes. Electromagnetic induction logs were used to determine the electrical properties of the fluid and formation surrounding the borehole. A natural gamma tool was used to identify the naturally occurring gamma radiation that is emitted from the earth materials. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) tools were used to measure the water content and estimate the pore-size distribution and hydraulic conductivity (K)...

From October 2016 to July 2018, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and Maine Department of Transportation, collected surface, marine and borehole geophysical surveys to characterize the subsurface materials on land and under the water at a former mine facility in Brooksville, Maine. Borehole geophysical logs were collected from May 2-3, 2017 in five boreholes to identify geophysical properties, including the electrical properties and natural gamma emissions. In addition, fluid electrical conductivity and temperature were collected through the water column in the well. Results can be used to identify the water level and the lithologic contacts in the subsurface. Natural...

In March 2016, the U.S. Geological Survey drilled a borehole, MA-FSW-750-0100, through the unconsolidated sediments and 1.5 m into the bedrock in East Falmouth, Massachusetts, to improve understanding of the glacial history and hydrologic properties of the Cape Cod aquifer. Prior to drilling, candidate sites were investigated using surface geophysical methods. Passive seismic horizontal-to-vertical spectral ratio (HVSR) methods were used to estimate the depth of the unconsolidated deposits over bedrock. Transient electromagnetic (TEM) surveys were conducted to characterize the lithology and salinity of formation water in the subsurface, which was used to plan the borehole completion. The specific conductance of...

A pulsed magnetic resonance borehole tool was used to characterize hydraulic properties of the aquifer. Borehole nuclear magnetic resonance (bNMR) logs were collected to measure the water content and to estimate the pore-size distribution and hydraulic conductivity (K) over the depth of the borehole. The bNMR data were collected July 25-26, 2016, and were processed August 2016.

In March 2016, the U.S. Geological Survey drilled a borehole, MA-FSW-750, through the unconsolidated sediments and 1.5 m into the bedrock in East Falmouth, Massachusetts, to improve understanding of the glacial history and hydrologic properties of the Cape Cod aquifer. Polyvinyl casing was set through the overburden and into the bedrock. About 10 days after borehole MA-FSW-750 was drilled, it was logged with geophysical methods including natural gamma radiation and electromagnetic induction (EMI) logs to identify changes in the lithology and fluid properties of the subsurface. In addition, the gamma and EMI logs were collected about 100 days after drilling, which allowed the drilling fluids to be displaced and natural...
