A PC-based 8-channel seismic system has been developed and applied for bedrock mapping in near shore environment. The system is composed of an analog signal processor and an A/D converter installed on the computer, and a streamer with the group interval of 5 meters. The system is accomplished with a data acquisition program which controls the system and a data processing software. With the PC-based shallow marine seismic survey system high-resolution 2-D marine seismic profiles which have high S/N ratios can be obtained after appropriate data processing.

본 연구는 고해상도의 충적층 지하수위 분포 조사를 위한 탄성파 굴절법 조사 방법을 소개하고 부여 군수리 충적층 일대에서 이 기법을 통해, 획득된 실제 충적층내의 지하수위 조사 결과를 제시한다. 기본적으로 본 연구에서 활용된 연속 굴절파 중합 방식은 동일 공심점(common mid point, 이후 CMP)을 갖는 굴절파 신호를 취합하고, 이격 거리(offset)에 대한 시간 지연 효과 보정을 수행한 후, 이들 신호를 중합하여, 충적층의 지하수위면에서 굴절된 신호를 보다 뚜렷이 부각시켜 정확한 지하수위 정보를 획득 하는 방식으로 일명 CMP 굴절법이라고도 한다. 이 방식은 독일에서 최초 개발되었으나(Gebrande, 1986; Orlowsky 등, 1998), 국내에서 적용되기는 본 연구가 최초이다. 이러한 탄성파의 굴절 신호를 사용하는 방식은 우선, 기존의 일반적인 고해상도 반사법 탐사에서 잡음으로 여겨졌던 굴절파 신호를 활용할 수 있으며, 고해상도 반사법 탐사와 동일한 배열과 운영 방식으로 획득된 자료에서 원하는 정보를 획득할 수 있으므로, 고해상도 반사법에 의한 기반암 조사와 함께 적용될 경우, 정화한 충적 대수층의 분포를 조사할 수 있게 하여주는 획기적인 조사 신기술이다. 개발된 기법은 부여 군수리 충적층 지역을 대상으로 적용되었으며, 그 결과 기존의 어떠한 지구물리 조사 방법보다 정확하고 분명한 지하수위 분포를 보여주었다.

In order to find a good seismic source for high-resolution reflection surveys on a tidal flat, characteristic features of several sources were examined through test recording by the walkaway configuration. The sources comprise portable vibrator, 1.2 kg monkey spanner, 4.7 kg sledge hammer, and weight drops with a 30 kg and a 100 kg iron ball, respectively. We analyzed raw and filtered seismic data for the resolution of individual events, then compared various seismic sources to define suitable one for the high-resolution survey in terms of energy level and frequency contents. The study reveals that the portable vibrator is the most suitable source for the detection of and imaging geologic structures less than 20-30 m deep in a tidal flat. We ascribe this to the wide frequency band and high-frequency contents of the portable vibrator. In contrast, the hammer may be an alternative where the target depth increases up to 100 m.

창원시 북면과 대산면 강변 여과 취수 지역에서의 탄성파 조사를 통한 충적 대수층의 특성 규명은, 탄성파 조사가 충적 대수층의 수리지질학적 정보를 획득하는데 매우 유용한 방법임을 보여주었다. 특히 굴절법 탐사는 충적층 지하수위 추정에 뚜렷한 효과가 있음을 보여주었으며, 고해상도 반사법 탐사의 경우도 퇴적 구조를 잘 반영하는 것으로 나타났다. 조사된 지역의 지하수위는 하천수위에 비해 약 2m 이상 높은 것으로 나타났으며, 이는 조사된 시기의 지하수가 하천 방향으로 거동하고 있음을 시사한다. 하천 방향의 지하수위 최대 경사는 약 2/100 였으며, 실제 전반적인 조사 지역내의 충적층 지하수위 수두 경사는 이보다 작은 값일 것으로 사료된다. 또한 점토 및 실트질 지층이 조사 지역에 협재하고 있으나 이들의 수평적인 연속성은 한계가 있어 대표적인 대수층인 자갈 혼재층이 부분적으로만 피압 상태에 있을 것으로 판단된다. 한편, 햄머 진원을 이용한 고해상도 반사법 탐사의 경우, 약 40m 전후 심도의 충적층 하부 기반암의 상부를 뚜렷하게 보여주기에는 한계가 있다고 판단되며, P파의 속도와 주파수 문제로 인한 수직 해상력의 한계는 S파 등을 활용한 조사를 통해 보완할 필요가 있다고 사료된다

Measurements in two adjacent (about 1.5 m separation) boreholes reveal that there is a significant degree of variations in the width and property (permeability) of shear zones in the granitic rock. A high frequency (>10 kHz) cross-well seismic tomography was conducted to characterize the features of permeability distribution at the shear zones in the inter-well region. At the shear zones, the correlation between the permeability at the well location and the velocity pattern shown in the cross-well velocity tomogram suggests that a high resolution velocity tomogram may provide useful information for the shear zone characteristics, such as permeability, fracture density, width, and length.

Digital technology has been applied to marine seismic survey to develop data processing technology and multi-channel marine seismic survey. In result, high-resolution marine seismic survey ended in a success. Surveys are conducted for various purposes using various frequencies of acoustic sources. A low frequency source is used for deeper penetration and a high frequency source is used for higher resolution survey. In this study, a multi-source system was used for multi-channel marine seismic survey to acquire seismic sections of both low and high frequencies. Variations of depth of penetration and resolution would be used to achieve more accurate analysis of formations. In this study, the multi-source system consists of Bubble Pulser (400 Hz) for low frequency source and Sparker (1.5kHz) for high frequency source.

A high-resolution seismic survey was conducted on the abandoned tidal flat in Shihwa Lake on the west coast of Korea. A portable vibrator was used as a seismic source and 217 shot gathers with 48-channel system were acquired. F-k filtering, residual static corrections and post-stack frequency filtering are found to be useful for signal enhancement. The overburden is divided into two seismic depositional units. Unit I is deposited in tidal environment characterized by parallel and high continuity reflection pattern. This unit comprises a dry layer (Unit Ia) and a wet layer (Unit Ib) having averagely 5 and 15 meters thick, respectively. Unit II unconformably overlain by Unit I exhibits discontinuity and hummocky reflection pattern, indicating complex channel-fill sediments in estuary. The maximum thickness of this unit is approximately 20 meter. Acoustic basement is considered as Precambrian granitic gneiss occurred in the surrounding area.

For the last several decades, high-resolution shallow marine seismic technique has been used for various resources, engineering and geological surveys. Even though the multichannel method is powerful to image subsurface structures, single channel analog survey has been more frequently employed in shallow water exploration, because it is more expedient and economical. To improve the quality of the high-resolution seismic data economically, we acquired digital seismic data using a small air gun, 6 channel streamer and PC-based system, performed data processing and produced high-resolution seismic sections. For many years, such test acquisitions were performed with other studies which have different purposes in the area of off Pohang, Yellow Sea and Gyeonggi-bay. Basic data processing was applied to the acquired data and the processing sequence included gain recovery, deconvolution, filtering, normal moveout, static corrections, CMP gathering and stacking. Examples of digitally processed sections were shown and compared with analog sections. Digital seismic sections have a much higher resolution after data processing. The results of acquisition and processing show that the high-resolution shallow marine seismic surveys using a small air gun, 6 channel streamer and PC-based system may be an effective way to image shallow subsurface structures precisely.
