Exploration Instruments reposted this
At present, several seismic exploration techniques are based on #microtremor (ambient noise). In 1958 the famous #seismologist Beno Gutenberg studied and listed the origin of microtremor at low frequency (approx. below 1 Hz), which is mostly #meteorological and related to oceanic #waves. Try using your Tromino #seismometer as a #barometer: take a recording at the same site on a day of good #weather and on a day of bad weather. You will easily see the difference in the amplitude of the spectra below 1 Hz.

🚨 NEW TRAINING COURSE ALERT!🚨 The Environmental and Engineering Geophysical Society (EEGS) is proud to announce its inaugural 14-week virtual training course, Geophysical Applications in Near Surface, #GAINS! 👀 Are you starting a career in near-surface geophysics? 🤸♀️ Are you looking to pivot from one area of geoscience to near-surface geophysics? 🙌 Are you an engineer or geologist whose company uses geophysics and you want to learn more about how it works and what it can tell you? 👏 If any of the above, this course is for you! This course will feature 13 virtual training modules spanning various topics in near-surface geophysics applications. Webinars will be given by subject matter experts from industry and government agencies highlighting how and when to use different geophysical techniques for which types of objectives. You'll hear from practitioners on how they approach projects, how the work was performed, results interpreted, and how the clients used those geophysical results! Want to sign up? Become (or #renew) your EEGS membership and the course is FREE to take! ---> https://lnkd.in/gwez5izX 📅 The course kicks off October 9th, 2024! 📝 More details to come with registration information, stay tuned!! #nsg #nearsurface #engineering #engineeringgeophysics #nearsurfacegeophysics #training #EEGS #education #gotGAINS

Join EEGS for the May TAG webinar “Passive Seismic Approaches for Active Geophysicists” Tuesday, May 28, 2024 Register at: https://lnkd.in/ez5JvE4D Resonance frequencies are intrinsic properties of elastic media: they depend on their stiffness and mass distribution, and on their constraints. In geological and geophysical applications, resonance frequencies are traditionally assessed by means of the microtremor H/V seismic method. Resonance frequencies can quite easily be converted into the corresponding depths of seismic reflectors responsible for the occurrence of those resonances, in the presence of a Vs estimate. Since 1999, this has led to several interesting images of the main reflectors in the soil achieved by means of passive single station approaches. However, resonances, being intrinsic properties, are expected to change only in amplitude and not in frequency with the measurement point, in a same medium. "How can we reconcile the fact that, as an example, a basin cross-section is a geological medium with characteristic and unique modal frequencies that do not change along the cross-section, with the fact that the H/V peak frequencies shift from the sides to the center of the basin? To answer this question, we’ll explore what we call 1D and 2D resonance and H/V or H&V approaches and provide some hints on how to discriminate and exploit the two cases.
