1. 1. Analysis of Multicomponent Data to Study Esker Structures, Turku-Finland

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Geofysik

   Author : Julia Fridlund; [2017]
   Keywords : Finland; esker structures; reflection seismology; multicomponent data; S-wave; Finland; rullstensås; reflexionsseismik; flerkomponentdata; S-vågor;

   Abstract : Eskers are long winding ridges that originate from gravel that has travelled in meltwater streams in glaciers. At the study site, Virttaankangas plane in southwest Finland, there are esker structures covered by sediments. One reason why it is important to study eskers is because they are used for purifying drinking water. READ MORE

3. 2. Elastic Anisotropy of Deformation Zones in both Seismic and Ultrasonic Frequencies: An Example from the Bergslagen Region, Eastern Sweden

   University essay from Geofysik

   Author : Pouya Ahmadi; [2013]
   Keywords : Elastic Anisotropy; Seismic Anisotropy; Deformation Zone; Elastic Stiffness Tensor; LDI measurements; Seismic Data;

   Abstract : Estimation of elastic anisotropy, which is usually caused by rock fabrics and mineral orientation, has an important role in exploration seismology and better understanding of crustal seismic reflections. If not properly taken care of during processing steps, it may lead to wrong interpretation or distorted seismic image. READ MORE

   University essay from Geofysik

   Author : Peter Agerberg; [2008]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : Reflection seismology is a geophysical exploration method that is used to estimate the physical properties of the earth. It is by far the most used and well-known geophysical technique and it has dominated the industry of oil and gas exploration since the beginning. READ MORE
