Three Dimensional Attenuation Tomography from microseismicity
Attenuation images are obtained from 6287 t-star spectral measurements of P-wave microseismic events in a mine setting. The resulting three-dimensional quality factor (Q) model reveals that most of the study region is characterized by low Q values or high attenuation (Q<25), probably caused by cavities and fractures due to mining activities. Q values between 25 and 50 show a high spatial correl...
متن کاملSeismic attenuation tomography using the frequency shift method
We present a method for estimating seismic attenuation based on frequency shift data. In most natural materials, seismic attenuation increases with frequency. The high-frequency components of the seismic signal are attenuated more rapidly than the low-frequency components as waves propagate. As a result, the centroid of the signal’s spectrum experiences a downshift during propagation. Under the...
متن کاملThree Dimensional Tomography
A series expansion method in three dimensional tomography is presented. While the function to be reconstructed is expanded in terms of spherical harmonics and orthogonal polynomials, the projection of the function is expanded in terms of Euler angles in the angular part and orthogonal polynomials in the radial part. The computer simulation of the reconstruction demonstrates the applicability of...
متن کاملThree-dimensional seismic velocity structure of Mauna Loa and Kilauea volcanoes in Hawaii from local seismic tomography
We present a new three-dimensional seismic velocity model of the crustal and upper mantle structure for Mauna Loa and Kilauea volcanoes in Hawaii. Our model is derived from the first-arrival times of the compressional and shear waves from about 53,000 events on and near the Island of Hawaii between 1992 and 2009 recorded by the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory stations. The Vp model generally agree...
متن کاملThree‐dimensional seismic velocity tomography of Montserrat from the SEA‐CALIPSO offshore/onshore experiment
[1] The SEA‐CALIPSO experiment in December 2007 incorporated a sea‐based airgun source, and seismic recorders both on Montserrat and on the adjacent sea floor. A high quality subset of the data was used for a first arrival P‐wave velocity tomographic study. A total of more than 115,000 traveltime data from 4413 airgun shots, and 58 recording stations, were used in this high‐ resolution tomograp...
