  1. 1. An Innovative In-Tunnel Seismic Study for Sustainably Extracting Apatite Ore at the Siilinjärvi Mine, Eastern Finland

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

    Author : Anna Donczew; [2019]
    Keywords : in-tunnel seismic; reflection seismic; traveltime tomography; carbonatites; shear zones; Siilinjärvi; tunnelseismik; reflektionsseismik; restidstomografi; karbonatiter; skjuvzoner; Siilinjärvi;

    Abstract : Siilinjärvi located in eastern Finland is presently the only phosphate mine with significant phosphorus production in western Europe. Phosphate rock and phosphorus are known as a critical raw material for the European Union due to their economic importance and being prone to the supply risks. READ MORE

  2. 2. Evaluation of SCPT-surveys as method for accessing dynamic modulus

    University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

    Author : Joakim Granskär; [2018]
    Keywords : SCPT; Dynamic modulus; Seismic surveys;

    Abstract : The purpose of this master thesis is to evaluate the results from the completed SCPT (Seismic Cone Penetration Test) surveys with respect to the methods ability to estimate dynamic young´s modulus. This has been done by comparing the result from SCPT to other seismic methods and dynamic parameters converted from “static” geotechnical surveys. READ MORE

  3. 3. Digitization and interpretation of vintage 2D seismic reflection data from Hanö Bay, Sweden

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Geologiska institutionen

    Author : Nikolas Benavides Höglund; [2016]
    Keywords : seismic interpretation; Tornquist Zone; Hanö Bay Basin; seismic data; digitization of seismic sections; OPAB; Earth and Environmental Sciences;

    Abstract : Seismic reflection data has been collected for more than half a century for both scientific and industrial purposes. Data sampled in modern surveys are collected, processed and stored digitally. READ MORE

  4. 4. Looking at Noise: Human Ecological Issues when Assessing the Impact of Seismic Surveys Effects on Oceanic Whales

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Institutionen för kulturgeografi och ekonomisk geografi; Lunds universitet/Humanekologi

    Author : Alice Edwall; [2016]
    Keywords : Airguns; Cetaceans; Anthropocentrism; Anthropogenic noise; Marine noise pollution; Marine sound pollution; Seismic surveys; Uexküll; Umwelt; Whales; Social Sciences;

    Abstract : This thesis introduces different issues regarding the impact of anthropogenic sound pollution on oceanic cetaceans (whales). It involves looking at the problems of anthropocentrism and the notion of Umwelt when trying to assess the well-being of a western culturally important species, and the relationship between that species and the industrialization of the ocean.

  5. 5. Extending the resolution of conventional deep seismic 3D surveys

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Teknisk geologi; Lunds universitet/Väg- och vattenbyggnad (CI)

    Author : Niklas Gustafsson; [2015]
    Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : The main objective of this master's thesis is to evaluate a new processing method for extracting seismic conventional 3D streamer deep target data for shallow subsurface imaging. Deep target acquisitions have greater potential than it's conventional use. READ MORE
