Abstract:
The classical wavefront method for interpreting seismic refraction arrival times is implemented on a digital computer. Modern finite‐difference propagation algorithms are used to downward continue recorded refraction arrival times through a near‐surface heterogeneous velocity structure. Two such subsurface traveltime fields need to be reconstructed from the arrivals observed on a forward and reverse geophone spread. The locus of a shallow refracting horizon is then defined by a simple imaging condition involving the reciprocal time (the traveltime between source positions at either end of the

Abstract:
The analysis of seismic refraction data by the generalized reciprocal method can be used for delineating undulating refractors. The forward and reverse times of arrival at different geophones with XY distance along a refraction profile, are used for calculating time depth. The seismic wave velocity in refractor may be obtained from velocity analysis function, and the depth of refractor under each geophone is obtained from time-depths function. This method has been applied at one line of seismic refraction measurement that was 440 m long with 45 geophone positions. The measurement obtained 20 m

Abstract:
Refraction methods are often applied to model and image near-surface velocity structures. However, near-surface imaging is very challenging, and no single method can resolve all of the land seismic problems across the world. In addition, deep interfaces are difficult to image from land reflection data due to the associated low signal-to-noise ratio. Following previous research, we have developed a refraction wavefield migration method for imaging shallow and deep interfaces via interferometry. Our method includes two steps: converting refractions into virtual reflection gathers and then applyi

Abstract:
Topography and near-surface heterogeneities lead to traveltime perturbations in surface land-seismic experiments. Usually, these perturbations are estimated and removed prior to further processing of the data. A common technique to estimate these perturbations is the delay-time method. We have developed the “modified delay-time method,” wherein we isolate the arrival times of the virtual refraction and estimate receiver-side delay times. The virtual refraction is a spurious arrival found in wavefields estimated by seismic interferometry. The new method removes the source term from the delay-ti

A critical parameter in interpreting seismic refraction data with the generalized reciprocal method (GRM) is the reciprocal time, which must be available for each layer from which refracted rays return to the surface. The reciprocal time can be measured in the field, but this requires special equipment or procedures. Shooting to obtain the reciprocal time from each layer along a long seismic line may be operationally impractical. However, the method of phantoming arrivals overcame the problems. In phantoming, a reciprocal time is actually measured along any length of the seismic refraction lin

Anisotropy parameters can be determined from seismic refraction data using the generalized reciprocal method (GRM) for a layer in which the velocity can be described with the Crampin approximation for transverse isotropy. The parameters are the standard anisotropy factor, which is the horizontal velocity divided by the vertical velocity, and a second poorly determined parameter which, for weak anisotropy, is approximated by a linear relationship with the anisotropy factor. Although only one anisotropy parameter is effectively determined, the second parameter is essential to ensure that the ani

Abstract:
The refraction convolution section (RCS) is a simple and efficient method for full trace processing of shallow seismic refraction data. It facilitates improved interpretation of shallow seismic refraction data through the convenient use of amplitudes as well as traveltimes. The RCS is generated by the convolution of forward and reverse shot records. The convolution operation effectively adds the first arrival traveltimes of each pair of forward and reverse traces and produces a measure of the depth to the refracting interface in units of time which is equivalent to the time-depth function of t
