Surface-consistent amplitude corrections for single or multicomponent sources and receivers using reciprocity and waveform inversion [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In land seismics, near-surface conditions often vary within surveys, resulting in differences in source strength and signature. Furthermore, discrepancies between closely spaced recordings are also commonly observed.

Comparison of elastic moduli from seismic diving-wave and ice-core microstructure analysis in Antarctic polar firn

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2019
We compared elastic moduli in polar firn derived from diving wave refraction seismic velocity analysis, firn-core density measurements and microstructure modelling based on firn-core data.

P-wave velocity changes in freezing hard low-porosity rocks: a laboratory-based time-average model [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2012
P-wave refraction seismics is a key method in permafrost research but its applicability to low-porosity rocks, which constitute alpine rock walls, has been denied in prior studies.

Seismic Prediction While Drilling (SPWD): Looking Ahead of the Drill Bit by Application of Phased Array Technology [PDF]

open access: yesScientific Drilling, 2010
Geophysical exploration is indispensable for planning deep drilling. Usually 2D- or 3D-seismics investigations are applied and, depending on the resulting geologic model for the underground, the drill site and drilling path are determined.

SEISMICITY OF THE EARTH [PDF]

open access: yesGeological Society of America Bulletin, 1941
This paper is intended: (1) to give an account of the relative seismicity of various parts of the earth during the limited period for which accurate information is available, and (2) to identify and discuss the geographical and geological relationships of the principal zones and areas of seismic activity.

Seismicity and seismic hazards

open access: yes, 2001
Many earthquakes occur along Canada's western margin near the edge of the North American Plate, but others occur within the plate in Arctic and southeastern Canada. Damaging earthquakes have occurred throughout history in both Eastern and Western Canada, and will undoubtedly recur in the future.

Joint analysis of shear wave velocity from SH-wave refraction and MASW techniques for SPT-N estimation [PDF]

open access: yesSongklanakarin Journal of Science and Technology (SJST), 2014
Horizontally polarized shear wave (SH) refraction and multichannel analysis of surface wave (MASW) methods have been carried out in Hatyai City, southern Thailand, a pilot study for site classification, part of the National Earthquake Hazards Reduction

Wet subglacial bedforms of the NE Greenland Ice Stream shear margins

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2019
We describe elongate, wet, subglacial bedforms in the shear margins of the NE Greenland Ice Stream and place some constraints on their formation. Lateral shear margin moraines have been observed across the previously glaciated landscape, but little is ...
