Data Groundwater level in Bedrock.xlsx
We drilled six boreholes in two clusters. The boreholes reached a depth between 2 and 9 m below the ground surface. The lower half of boreholes BH1 and BH6 were cored with a 9 cm-diameter rotational diamond drilling head. The other boreholes were drilled destructively with an 11 cm-diameter Mitsubishi hammer system. Boreholes BH1, BH2 and BH5 were equipped with open standpipe piezometers, whereas BH3, BH4 and BH6 were equipped with a special piezometer system composed of an enclosed measuring cell at the bottom of a 1 inch-PVC tube. The free groundwater level in the PVC tube is measured in the standpipe piezometer, but it doesn’t necessarily represent the water table in the soil layer because the pressure sensor is located in the sealed lower part of the piezometer in the enclosed measuring cell and thus is not in contact with the air. This system allows the hydraulic pressure of lithologies with low permeability to be measured directly. Two piezometers were installed in BH6 at different depths. The PVC tubes were slotted at the bottom for 0.5, 1 or 2 meters and the boreholes were sealed carefully with clay pellets above this filter section to avoid by-pass and infiltration from the surface. DCX-22 pressure sensors from Keller AG Winterthur, with integrated data loggers, were installed in each piezometer to measure the relative hydraulic pressure at a 30 minute-intervals from November 2010 to November 2011. The data were corrected for in-situ air-pressure fluctuations.
