In July 1964 three seismic refraction profiles were recorded
over Stonewall Bank (44°32'N, 124°24'W) to determine gross sub-bottom
geological structure to depths of thousands of feet. In August
1964 a continuous seismic reflection profiler was used to document
shallow geological structure within the rocks forming the Bank.
Stonewall Bank is...
A marine geophysical study using shallow seismic reflection, gravity and magnetic methods of investigation was done for an offshore area near Newport, Oregon. The area is bounded by the latitudes 44°1O' to 44°50' N. and longitudes 124°07' to 124°30' W. The interpretation of observational data showed that the geology of...
The gravitational anomalies of simple bodies (sphere, cylinder, and fault) were used to develop methods for analyzing gravity data in the frequency domain. The Fourier transforms of the functional representations of the theoretical gravitational anomalies of these bodies were obtained. Mathematical formulations were made between the transform versus frequency relationships...
The character of the primary seismic wave in the
range of distances between 100 and 600 km is affected by
such factors as the nature of the source, exponential
attenuation, crustal structure, type of wave propagation,
recording site geology and instrument response. The
first arrivals from the GNOME and SHOAL...
Fourier transformed amplitudes of the compressional waves
recorded between 9° and 91° (about 1000 to 10,000 km) epicentral
distance from Gnome, Shoal, Haymaker,and Bilby underground
nuclear explosions have been compared with Fourier transformed
amplitudes of P waves measured at distances between 9.0 and
1 3. 0 km from the explosions....
The first cycle of seismic waves recorded at distances of 45,
300 and 355 km. from the GNOME nuclear explosion was used to determine
whether the near source wave characteristics at 0.3 km.
could be determined from distance measurements. Both head wave
and body wave propagation were considered. First the...
The vertical and radial components of a seismic P wave can be
decomposed by a Fourier transform into two sets of nonterminating
sinusoidal waves with one set for each component. The tangent of the
vertical transform divided by the radial transform gives by definition
he apparent angle of emergence for...
