In an Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) process, one of the main difficulties is to quickly evaluate if the injected chemical products actually improve oil recovery in the reservoir.

Shallow shear-wave reflection seismics in the tsunami struck Krueng Aceh River Basin, Sumatra [PDF]
As part of the project "Management of Georisk" (MANGEONAD) of the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR), Hanover, high resolution shallow shear-wave reflection seismics was applied in the Indonesian province Nanggroe ...

Potential Use of Time-Lapse Surface Seismics for Monitoring Thawing of the Terrestrial Arctic [PDF]
The terrestrial Arctic is warming rapidly, causing changes in the degree of freezing of the upper sediments, which the mechanical properties of unconsolidated sediments strongly depend upon.

Analytical fundamentals of migration in reflection seismics
We consider migration in reflection seismics from a completely analytical perspective. We review the basic geometrical ray-path approach to understanding the subject of migration, and discuss the limitations of this method.

Glacial hydraulic tremor on Rhonegletscher, Switzerland
Glacial hydraulic tremor (GHT) can be monitored to observe changes in location and distribution of water flow beneath glacial ice, allowing the spatiotemporal evolution of subglacial hydrology to be studied continuously and remotely.

Fractal Seismicity and Seismic Risk [PDF]
Recently, attempts have been made to take into account the fractal properties of seismicity when mapping the long-term rate of earthquakes. The paper touches upon the theoretical aspects of fractality and provides a critical analysis of its applications to the problems of seismic ...

Bathymetry and bed conditions of Lago Subglacial CECs, West Antarctica
Although over 600 Antarctic subglacial lakes have been identified using radar and satellite observations, the bathymetry and bed properties, which are key to understanding conditions within the lake, have been determined in very few localities.

Characterising ice slabs in firn using seismic full waveform inversion, a sensitivity study
The density structure of firn has implications for hydrological and climate modelling, and ice-shelf stability. The structure of firn can be evaluated from depth models of seismic velocity, widely obtained with Herglotz–Wiechert inversion (HWI), an ...

Seismic observations of a complex firn structure across the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica
We use seismic refraction data to investigate the firn structure across a suture zone on the Amery Ice Shelf, East Antarctica, and the possible role of glacier dynamics in firn evolution.

Seismicity and Principal Seismic Effects [PDF]
Summary A statistical method is given for estimating the total effect of earthquakes over a given period. The effect may be measured by return-time, shaking or damage, and may be exerted at a point (e.g. building), on a linear object (e.g. road), or on an area. For each type of effect there are given formulae for the statistical distribution,
