Data Used to Calculate Flow Logs for Wells on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, California, 2024

April 30, 2026

This dataset contains velocity and flow log data collected in 2024 for water production wells (PW) located on Marine Corps Base Camp Pendleton, PW-2602 and PW-2604. Data were collected using the tracer-pulse method described in Izbicki and others (1999), in which a pulse of a rhodamine dye tracer is injected to a known depth in an operating well and the travel time of the tracer to a detector in line with the surface discharge of the well is measured. Velocity and cumulative flow are calculated from the dye-arrival times using methods described by Izbicki and others (1999). Flow for both wells was calculated using the installed pump within the screened interval, which captured flow from above and below the pump intake. Included in this release are two tables with dye-arrival times, two tables with velocity- and cumulative-flow log calculations, and a table of relevant well properties.
