<p>An apparatus for in situ geophysical sensing includes a sensor for measuring geophysical data and a liquid absorbent member connected to the sensor that expands in response to contacting a liquid and thereby physically couples the sensor to a local sensing environment. The liquid absorbent member may be formed of beads or pellets or powder that includes a liquid absorbent material. The liquid absorbent member may also include a soluble binding agent for binding the beads or pellets or powder into an integral member such as a casing for containing the sensor. A method and system corresponding to the apparatus are also described herein. The apparatus, method and system described herein may be used to improve borehole sensor data quality without adding significant complexity to the borehole sensor deployment process.</p> |
