SEISMIC REFRACTION METHOD

Refraction method uses sound waves to map Earth's hidden layers.

SEISMIC REFRACTION METHOD

SEISMIC REFRACION METHOD

  • The detecting equipment recorded the arrival timings of the seismic waves when refracted from the surface of the discontinuity using the seismic refraction method.
  • These times provide information on the velocities and depths of the subterranean formations that they traverse. Layer 1, V1 Layer 2, V2 S.P. G. Refracted Ray Refractor
  • The refraction method allows you to cover a larger area in less time and at a lower cost than the reflection approach.
