Seismic methods


This posting has been writen for tkose who need a solid ungerstanding of the seismic method without the in-dept mathematical threatment that is normally required. It is laid out in a format that allows one to naturally progress from the underlying physical principles to the actual seismic method.
The mathematical method needed for the topics is kept as simple as possible. High school physic and mathematics are all that required. It will then progress into the principles of electrical circuits and geophone design, geophone arrays and recording instrumentation design and behavior, before treating the seismic shooting method it self. In this way we lay a solid foundation for the understanding of the processes at work, wich are waves and their behavior, instruments and their behavior and the subsequent recording, processing and interpretation principles of the geophysical wave forms.
The posting essentially consist of seven divisions:
  1.   Basic physics
  2.  geophone and instrumentation
  3. Seismic field design
  4.  Rock, rock physics and well design
  5.  The Seismic method
  6.  Seismic interpretation and geology
  7. Probability statistics and mapping
