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.

Recent research is increasingly focused on utilizing seismic waves for structure health monitoring (SHM). Specifically, seismic interferometry, a technique applied in geophysical surveys using ambient noise, is widely applied in SHM. This method involves analyzing the response of buildings to propagating seismic waves. This enables the estimation of changes in structural stiffness and the evaluation of the location and presence of damage. Analysis of seismic interferometry applied to SHM, along with case studies, indicates its highly effective application for assessing structural stability and monitoring building conditions. Seismic interferometry is thus recognized as an efficient approach for evaluating building integrity and damage detection in SHM and monitoring applications.

In the traditional seismic processing, multiple reflections are treated as noise and therefore they are eliminated during data processing. Recently, however, many studies have begun to consider multiples as signals rather than noise for seismic imaging. Multiple reflections can illuminate an area where primary reflections are not able to cover, thus it is allowed that a smaller number of shots and receivers are used for imaging large areas. In order to verify this, surface-related multiples were used for reverse-time migration (RTM), and then we compared the results with conventional RTM images which are generated from primary reflections. To utilize multiples, we separated multiples from whole seismic data using surface-related multiple elimination (SRME) method. Numerical examples confirmed that the migration using multiples can image wider area than the conventional migration, particularly in the shallow subsurface layers. In addition, the migration of multiples could eliminate the acquisition footprints.

A multi-channel seismic reflection (MCS) survey was conducted in 2009 to explore the deep crustal structure of the Pacific Plate south of Hokkaido. The survey line happened to traverse a 250-km-wide Warm Core Ring (WCR), a current eddy that had been generated by the Kuroshio Extension. We attempted to use these MCS data to delineate the WCR fine structure. The survey line consists of two profiles: one with a shot interval of 200m and the other with a shot interval of 50 m. Records from the denser shot point line show much higher background noise than the records from the sparser shot point line. We identified the origin of this noise as acoustic reverberations between the sea surface, seafloor and subsurface discontinuities, from previous shots. Results showed that a prestack migration technique could enhance the signal buried in this background noise efficiently, if the sound speed information acquired from concurrent temperature measurements is available. The WCR is acoustically an assemblage of concave reflectors dipping inward, with steeper slopes (${\sim}2^{\circ}$) on th ocean side and gentler slopes (${\sim}1^{\circ}$) on the coastal side. Within the WCR, we recognised a 30-km-wide lens-shaped structure with reflectors on the perimeter.

To identify the potential area of gas hydrate in the Ulleung Basin, 2-D and 3-D seismic surveys using R/V Tamhae II were conducted in 2005 and 2006. Seismic survey equipment consisted of navigation system, recording system, streamer cable and air-gun source. For reliable velocity analysis in a deep sea area where water depths are mostly greater than 1,000 m and the target depth is up to about 500 msec interval below the seafloor, 3-km-long streamer and 1,035 $in^3$ tuned air-gun array were used. During the survey, a suite of quality control operations including source signature analysis, 2-D brute stack, RMS noise analysis and FK analysis were performed. The source signature was calculated to verify its conformity to quality specification and the gun dropout test was carried out to examine signature changes due to a single air gun's failure. From the online quality analysis, we could conclude that the overall data quality was very good even though some seismic data were affected by swell noise, parity error, spike noise and current rip noise. Especially, by checking the result of data quality enhancement using FK filtering and missing trace restoration technique for the 3-D seismic data inevitably contaminated with current rip noises, the acquired data were accepted and the field survey could be conducted continuously. Even in survey areas where the acquired data would be unsuitable for quality specification, the marine seismic survey efficiency could be improved by showing the possibility of noise suppression through onboard data processing.

Ground roll is a surface wave which is usually observed in the land seismic data. It is one of the typical coherent noise. During the reflection data processing, ground roll is removed because it is considered as noise. This removal process often causes the loss of reflection signals if the ground roll overlaps reflection signals. In this study, we look over Karhunen-Loeve Transform (KLT) and analyze its effects to suppress the ground roll appropriately while reducing the reflection loss. Numerical tests in homogeneous elastic media show that the ground roll has been properly rejected. However, the field data application reveals that there is no significant suppression of ground roll when compared to band-pass filtering. This can be considered that it is hard to calculate horizontally aligned gathers in the field data because the ground roll contains a wide range of frequency bands. On the contrary, the result of singular value decomposition (SVD) filtering shows that the ground roll has been significantly reduced. It is thought that the SVD filtering performs better in the ground roll suppression than KLT because it is easy to calculate the horizontally aligned gathers in the SVD filtering.

Chirp sub-bottom profilers (SBP) data are comparatively higher-resolution data than other seismic data and it's raw signal can be used as a final section after conducting basic filtering. However, Chirp SBP signal has possibility to include various noise in high-frequency band and to provide the distorted image for the complex geological structure in time domain. This study aims at the goal to establish the workflow of Chirp SBP data processing for enhanced image and to analyze the proper parameters for the domestic continental shelf. After pre-processing, we include the dynamic S/N filtering to eliminate the high-frequency component noise, the dip scan stack to enhance the continuity of reflection events and finally the post-stack depth migration to correct the distorted structure on the time domain sections. We demonstrated our workflow on the data acquired by domestically widely used equipments and then we could obtain the improved seismic sections of depth domain. This workflow seems to provide the proper seismic section to interpretation when applied to data processing of Chirp SBP that are largely used for domestic acquisition.

Zero-IF Chipset은 신호대 잡음비를 크게 하기 위해서 수신 RE 필터에 있어서 Balance 구동을 기본으로 하고 있으며, 듀플렉서에 있어서는 통과대역의 저손실화, 저지대역의 고감쇠화 및 송수신간 높은 격리도를 요구하고 있다. 본 고에서는 이러한 요구사항을 만족시킬 수 있는 표면탄성파 필터의 구현 원리와 향후 동향에 대해 논의하였다.
