Fast static correction methods for high-frequency multichannel marine seismic reflection data: A high-resolution seismic study of channel-levee systems on the Bengal Fan

Very high-frequency marine multichannel seismic reflection data generated by small-volume air- or waterguns allow detailed, high-resolution studies of sedimentary structures of the order of one to few metres wavelength. The high-frequency content, however, requires (1) a very exact knowledge of the source and receiver positions, and (2) the development of data processing methods which take this exact geometry into account. Static corrections are crucial for the quality of very high-frequency stacked data because static shifts caused by variations of the source and streamer depths are of the order of half to one dominant wavelength, so that they can lead to destructive interference during stacking of CDP sorted traces. As common surface-consistent residual static correction methods developed for land seismic data require fixed shot and receiver locations two simple and fast techniques have been developed for marine seismic data with moving sources and receivers to correct such static shifts. The first method – called CDP static correction method – is based on a simultaneous recording of Parasound sediment echosounder and multichannel seismic reflection data. It compares the depth information derived from the first arrivals of both data sets to calculate static correction time shifts for each seismic channel relative to the Parasound water depths. The second method – called average static correction method – utilises the fact that the streamer depth is mainly controlled by bird units, which keep the streamer in a predefined depth at certain increments but do not prevent the streamer from being slightly buoyant in-between. In case of calm weather conditions these streamer bendings mainly contribute to the overall static time shifts, whereas depth variations of the source are negligible. Hence, mean static correction time shifts are calculated for each channel by averaging the depth values determined at each geophone group position for several subsequent shots. Application of both methods to data of a high-resolution seismic survey of channel-levee systems on the Bengal Fan shows that the quality of the stacked section can be improved significantly compared to stacking results achieved without preceding static corrections. The optimised records show sedimentary features in great detail, that are not visible without static corrections. Limitations only result from the sea floor topography. The CDP static correction method generally provides more coherent reflections than the average static correction method but can only be applied in areas with rather flat sea floor, where no diffraction hyperbolae occur. In contrast, the average static correction method can also be used in regions with rough morphology, but the coherency of reflections is slightly reduced compared to the results of the CDP static correction method.  相似文献

Die Rheingrabenrandverwerfung im Wattkopftunnel bei Ettlingen (Nordschwarzwald)     

Ernst Neßeler  Michael Fröhler  Sebastían Lebede 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1993,82(4):765-768

The Wattkopftunnel, near Ettlingen (Nordschwarzwald), drives through the eastern margin of the Rheingraben. The tunnel passes cenozoic and mesozoic sediments. Early quarternary and tertiary beds are situated west of the main thrust of the Rheingraben. Fossil record indicates upper Oligocene age (Chatt) for parts of the tertiary sediments. At the eastern border of the Rheingraben, wedges of jurassic and middle triassic series are squeezed. East of the Rheingraben the tunnel drives in the lower triassic Bausandstein. The eastern margin of the Rheingraben was investigated in detail during tunneling. Faults of the Rheingraben margin are distributed in an 130 meter wide fault zone in the tunnel. Total stratigraphic separation by the normal faults reaches more than 2 000 meters. The cenozoic sequence suffered synsedimentary to early diagenetic deformation, while the mesozoic series are characterized by ruptural deformation. The fault- and joint system is directed in the rheinische Richtung (SSW-NNE). East of the Rheingraben a second direction occur, running parallel to the lower Albtal (W-E).

Application of a spectral correction method for measurements of covariances with fast-response sensors in the atmospheric boundary layer up to a height of 130 m and testing of the corrections   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Measurement of meteorological quantities with fast-response sensors by means of the eddycorrelation technique allows calculation of turbulent transport without too severe demands with regard to stationarity and homogeneity. However, the measurement system causes frequency-dependent errors due to measuring height, averaging interval, sampling rate and mean wind speed. A correction method (Moore, 1986) was applied to measurements taken on a 130 m tower located at the German North Sea coast. The errors for 10-min averages, obtained at a height of 10 m were between 20 and 30%, mainly caused by the inertia of the sensors, increasing to between 30 and 60% at 130 m height due to a loss of low-frequency parts of the spectra because of the averaging interval. The corrections to the obtained data were validated by comparing the cospectra calculated from the data with the spectra used for the computation of the correction factors.  相似文献

Zum System der Meeresströmungen in den höheren Breiten     

Wolfgang Krauß 《Ocean Dynamics》1955,8(3):102-111

Zusammenfassung Es wird gezeigt, daß in den höheren Breiten zwischen dem ozeanischen Stromfeld und der Windverteilung beträchtliche Unterschiede bestehen. Daher wird als Ursache des Strömungssystems nicht das Windfeld, sondern die Süßwasserzufuhr vom Festland angesehen, welche als Salzgehaltsstörung das küstennahe Massenfeld beherrscht und entsprechend dem Theorem nach Bjerknes ein Gradientstromsystem bedingt, welches dem beobachteten entspricht.

A contribution to the system of ocean currents in the higher latitudes

Summary It is demonstrated that in the high latitudes, considerable differences exist between the oceanic current system and the wind distribution. It is, therefore, supposed that it is not the windfield that gives rise to the existing current system but the supply of fresh water from the continent which, as a salinity disturbance, plays a dominant part in the field of mass near the coast. According to Bjerknes' theorem, the disturbance of salinity conditions a gradient current system; this is in good agreement with the observations.

Sur le système de courants marins par les hautes latitudes

Résumé On montre qu'il existe par les hautes latitudes de différences considérables entre le système de courants océaniques et la distribution des vents. Pour cette raison, on suppose que c'est l'afflux d'eau douce venant du continent et non le champ du vent qui engendre le système de courants dominant, sous la forme d'une perturbation de salinité, le champ de masse près des côtes. D'après le théorème de Bjerknes le système de courants de gradient est la conséquence nécessaire de la perturbation de salinité ce qui est en bon accord avec les observations faites dans ce domaine.

Turbulent fluxes from Helipod flights above quasi-homogeneous patches within the LITFASS area     

Jens Bange  Thomas Spieß  Marcus Herold  Frank Beyrich  Barbara Hennemuth 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》2006,121(1):127-151

Turbulent fluxes of sensible and latent heat were measured with the helicopter-borne turbulence probe Helipod over a heterogeneous landscape around the Meteorological Observatory Lindenberg during the STINHO-2 and LITFASS-2003 field experiments. Besides the determination of area-averaged heat fluxes, the analysis focused on different aspects of the response of the turbulent structure of the convective boundary layer (CBL) on the surface heterogeneity. A special flight pattern was designed to study flux profiles both over quasi-homogeneous sub-areas of the study region (representing the major land use types—forest, farmland, water) and over a typical mixture of the different surfaces. Significant differences were found between the heat fluxes over the individual surfaces along flight legs at about 80 m above ground level, in agreement with large-aperture scintillometer measurements. This flux separation was still present during some flights at levels near the middle of the CBL. Different scales for the blending height and horizontal heterogeneity were calculated, but none of them could be identified as a reliable indicator of the mixing state of the lower CBL. With the exception of the flights over water, the latent heat flux measurements generally showed a larger statistical error when compared with the sensible heat flux. Correlation coefficients a nd integral length scales were used to characterise the interplay between the vertical transport of sensible and latent heat, which was found to vary between ‘fairly correlated’ and ‘decoupled’, also depending on the soil moisture conditions.  相似文献
