Distributed Acoustic Sensing

Distributed Acoustic Sensing (DAS) is a potentially transformative technology in the geosciences and engineering. The rapidly increasing interest in DAS arises from its use in continuous arrays that can be kilometers in length while providing spatial resolution of meters and frequency response from millihertz to kilohertz. This mailing list provides a forum for discussion on all topics related to DAS technology including: applications, installation, data acquisition, handling and processing of data, engineering and scientific technical development, and advertisement of upcoming events, workshops, meetings, or other opportunities in the DAS community.

DAS Earthquake and Array Seismology working group - possible first meeting
2022-03-22 19:00:20
I have been alerted to another meeting next Wednesday: Wednesday March 30th at 12:00-3:00 PM Eastern Seafloor Fiber Optic Sensing The time window I proposed is 3 to 5 pm Central Time (Wednesday or Monday), starting a full hour after the scheduled end of the seafloor meeting, so I do not see it as conflicting. FYI, so far those with conflicts can't meet on Monday. Cliff > My thanks to those of you who expressed interest in this working group. Others are most welcome to join the group. > > I… [more]

My thanks to those of you who expressed interest in this working group. Others are most welcome to join the group. I hope to have a quick Zoom meeting next week. The spread of time zones (Europe to Australia) is an issue. Rather than do a Doodle Poll, please simply respond to this email with an indication whether you could participate in a brief (30 minutes?) meeting during one of the following times, and if you can, please specify the time range that will work for you: Monday March 28 betwee… [more]
