dataset Dataset

Statement

Methodology:

The dataset is a sonic log from a borehole drilled to 120 m (Site 1) on Larsen C Ice Shelf, Antarctica, in December 2022. It was acquired using a slim-hole triple sonic borehole probe manufactured by Robertson Geologging Ltd, which is comprised of one transmitter that radiates a high-frequency acoustic wave detected by three receivers on the probe. Boreholes were logged whilst the sonic probe was travelling up the borehole.

Data collection:

Logs were acquired using Robertson Geologging full waveform triple sonic probe, mini winch and Micrologger II.

Data quality:

Data are unaltered from those logged in the field. Centralisers were not used during logging due to uneven borehole width in the uppermost firn layers. Missing data are presented as -999.
