  6. Seismic Data Acquisition Parameters Geophones - 120 40-Hz vertical component at 5 meter intervals. Source - Elastic Weight Drop with 550 pound hammer activated at 20 meter intervals (every 4th geophone). 31 total shot points per line. Five impacts summed per shot point. Recording - 0.5 ms sample rate, 2000 samples per trace, 1 second listening time.

  7. Seismic Refraction Data Common Shot Gather West East Created with Vista

  8. Seismic Data Processing Parameters - 3188 traveltimes picked (out of 3720 total) - 0.6 meter grid size - One dynamic smoothing schedule 21x11 30 iterations - 3.9 times more knowns (traveltimes) than unknowns (smoothing schedule) - Final residual 3.9 ms Residual vs Iteration

  9. Description of Variance Analysis - Velocity data was obtained from 30 inversions where first-arrival time was randomly altered up to ± 4 ms ( ¼ period of average first arrival). - The sample variance of each slowness cell over the 30 samples was determined. - The variance provides an idea of how widely spread the values of each slowness cell are likely to be. - The larger the variance, the more scattered the velocities are. It may be inferred that there is more uncertainty in these parts of the model. - Sample variance: S² = Σ (xi – xave)² / n-1
