Quantitative determination of uncertainties in seismic refraction prospecting
We present a model of the propagation of refracted seismic waves in planar (horizontal or dipping) layered structures in which we quantify the errors from various sources. The model, called the (mixed) variance component model, separates the errors originating on the surface from those due to inhomogeneities of subsurface layers. The model starts with the assumption of homogeneous (constant-vel...
متن کاملApplying the Seismic Refraction Technique to Exploration for Transportation Facilities
The seismic refraction technique provides a simplified characterization of relatively large volumes of the subsurface in 2-dimensional (distance and depth) profiles. Compression wave (p-wave) velocities, the typical measured geologic material parameter, are a function of the moduli of the various unsaturated material masses in the subsurface profile. In saturated media, p-wave velocities are in...
متن کاملDetermination and sensitivity analysis of the seismic velocity of a shallow layer from refraction traveltimes measures
In this paper, we are interested in determining the seismic velocity of a shallow under-ground layer from refraction traveltimes measures. We present a study case taken from an experimental seismic survey. The study case is a wide-angle seismic inversion using experimental traveltimes measures and based on ray tracing technique and genetic algorithms. The hypothesis on the velocity distribution...
متن کاملRetrospective analysis for detecting seismic precursors in groundwater argon content
We examined the groundwater Argon content data sampled from 1988 to 2001 at two wells in Kamchatka (Russia) and anomalous increases appeared clearly during June– July 1996. On 21 June, a shallow (1 km) earthquake with M=7.1 occurred at a distance less than 250 km from the wells and so the previous increases could be related to this earthquake and, in particular, could be considered premonitory ...
متن کاملApplication of Seismic Refraction Tomography to Karst Cavities
For three years we have used synthetic and field data to investigate the effectiveness of commercial refraction tomography codes on both simple and complex subsurface velocity structures, with the ultimate goal of determining the suitability of the method for karst problems. The results of these studies indicate that refraction tomography is able to resolve karst features under some conditions....
