SPdKS analysis of ultralow-velocity zones beneath the western Pacific
[1] We collected a new data set of 1354 broadband SPdKS waveforms sampling the western Pacific Ocean region. These data indicate that multiple ultralow-velocity zones (ULVZs) exist in this region. We compared these data to 2.5-D synthetic seismograms computed with the PSVaxi method for a suite of 517 ULVZ models. The region beneath the North and South Philippine Sea shows no evidence for ULVZ p...
متن کاملLarge Scale Three Dimensional P Velocity Structure beneath the Western U
The results of a recent large scale three-dimensional study of P velocity beneath North America are analyzed from the point of view of the search for the fossil Farallon plate in the mantle beneath the western edge of the North American continent. The large scale velocity structure obtained in the western U.S. is compatible with independent finer scale seismic studies and suggests that the Fara...
متن کاملComparison of Laboratory and Ill Situ Compressional- Wave Velocity Measurements on Sediment Cores From the Western North Atlantic
Laboratory and in situ velocity measurements have been made on six piston cores taken in the western North Atlantic Ocean. Sediments from the southwestern Bermuda Rise and Greater Antilles Outer Ridge are clays having velocities ranging mostly from 1500 to 1530 m/s and velocity gradients near 1 s -•. In cores from the Nares Abyssal Plain, the clayey sediments have comparable velocities, but int...
متن کاملEffect of borehole stress concentration on compressional wave velocity measurements
Formation elastic properties near a borehole may be altered from their original state due to the stress concentration around the borehole. This could lead to a biased estimation of formation elastic properties measured from sonic logging data. To study the effect of stress concentration around a borehole on sonic logging, we first use an iterative approach, which combines a rock physics model a...
متن کاملThe Effect of Dynamic Permeability on Velocity and Intrinsic Attenuation of Compressional Waves in Sand
Stress waves contain useful information about the properties of porous materials; they can be recovered through different non-destructive testing methods such as crosswell, vertical seismic profile, borehole logging as well as sonic tests. In all these methods, it is crucial to assess the effects of frequency on wave attributes including velocity and intrinsic attenuation. The dependency of per...
