Ground Water Pressure - Tensiometers

WARNING: Provisional Data, subject to revision

Each instrument array (SP1-SP8) at the monitoring site is equipped with three tensiometers located at various depths. The tensiometers are connected with current transducers that can measure pore-water pressures in the range of +850 hPa to -1000 hPa. The location and depth of the porous tips of each of the tensiometers are indicated on the graphs. Pore-water pressures are reported in hectoPascals (hPa). One hectoPascal is roughly equivalent to the pressure exerted by a 1-cm-deep column of water.
