Underground pipelines?

There's a network of pipes that pump fuel/oil between refinery's and storage depots (UKOP).

Sewage and waste water storage tanks for holding excess capacity, they get pumped back out into the system when it can cope.

Those could have pumps running on and off at various times.

if the ground was dry it would mean that sound waves would be travelling thro part air part ground...and so the dryness would have a "slowing" of the velocity of the wave sort of acting as a supressor....

now if those pore spaces are full of water the ground would be more dense and the particle velocity would be faster.....

so to answer your question ..if the ground is wet the sound/vibration would be higher/more noticable

Makes perfect sense, and as I suspected. Thanks, Ditchy.
