each of these applications. I also don't understand why you consider archaeology a "natural application" of refection seismic. Although I have no experience in using either seismic or GPR in archaeology, I suspect that GPR would be capable of picking up subtler changes in the shallow subsoil (disturbed soil, filled-in excavations, smaller objects that do not generate a coherent seismic reflection) than would be possible with reflection seismic, which requires quite an abrupt change to generate a reflection, and has difficulty imaging nonlayered features. Is my suspicion correct? We run into the what is called "the file-drawer problem." As I alluded to above, scientific journals prefer to publish articles on methods that work, and do not often print articles of the type "I tried this method here, and it failed miserably." Regards.
693:'Seismic technology does not allow the direct detection of hydrocarbons, but it is used by geologists and geophysicists who interpret the data to distinguish the presence of structural traps that could potentially contain hydrocarbons' This sentence is not strictly true. Firstly, in seismic data processing we attempt to search for and enhance images artefacts called 'direct hydrocarbon indicators'. usually seen as a 'bright spot' or 'dim spot' on a stcaked seismic section. Secondly, seismic data processing has long since ceased to be solely about structural interpretation. Nowadays a significant amount of effort is made to search for various amplitude anomalies to act as lithology and property (egs. porosity, permeability etc) identifiers. If no-one objects I will consider a re-write over the next few days. 1111: 1276:
and I consulted WP to find out why they did so. I believe that the boundaries between packed soil and rock would be perfect for detection by reflective seismology (although such boundaries might obscure deeper boundaries below them), so why would archaeologists, who are primarily interested in visualizing buried stone walls, not want to use it as one of their technologies, and perhaps even as their first (quickest/preliminary/overview) survey technology? If the technology won't work, or if it is too expensive, that fact belongs in the article, for the benefit of those, like me, who wonder why it is not used for this obvious application.

perspective you take and simple extracts from research always need to be carefully considered. For example, an extract from an IAGC report (IAGC being a vested interest group for the seismic industry immediately does not sit right as an independent source) and also the claim as quoted that seismic does not injure mammals (I paraphrase here) is not a recommendation either (i.e. does it upset, distress, displace, disrupt migration, disrupt breeding, etc, etc...?). This report is also dated from 2012 and is really old research unlikely to be current thinking.
74: 53: 84: 758:“Reflection seismology or seismic reflection is a branch of seismology that uses reflected seismic waves to produce images of the Earth's subsurface.” When reading this article, it gives more an impression of describing reflection seismology as a method – with applications, to collect subsurface information (data). To interpret the data, scientists make use of seismology (“the scientific study of earthquakes and the movement of waves”) and 22: 899: 807: 732: 1186:
probably scant to none describing most inappropriate applications. I suspect that GPR is so much faster and cheaper than seismic, so if the target is shallow enough to show up on GPR, why would anyone use seismic? That said, the article might better describe why it is so useful in some applications, to help the reader understand why it is not used in others. Thanks for your comment.

course, are based on radio waves). When some archaeologist or student first uses a mapping technique based on the passage of varying-frequency sound waves through soil and rock, perhaps an accurate and high-definition view of the underground scene may turn out to revolutionize the discipline. I consider this article open to future extension in this direction.

of more powerful computers also made analysis of pre-stack data practical eg Amplitude-Versus-Offset or 'AVO' which shows variation in amplitude with offset in the pre-stack gather (important to note that DHI's are often pre-stack attributes). We should distinguish between structural/stratigraphic attributes (basics), lithology (poro-perm) and DHI (fluids).--

displacement is zero, while pressure has a maximum. Thus for pressure we have R=1, the resultant pressure being twice that of the incident wave. Since pressure is continuous across the interface, this creates the wave in the second medium which has twice the pressure amplitude of the incident wave. Thus T=2 is correct. It is reverse for displacement.

to Baker Hughes. Baker put Western Geophysical into a JV with Schlumberger's Geco-Prakla in 2000, forming WesternGeco. As of 2006, I think, WesternGeco is 100% Schlumberger. Did Tesla buy part of GSI? If so, I've forgotten it. But I was on the Western side of the Western-HGS merger, so I might not know all the details.
604:. For those of you familiar with marine seismic data, the reflection coefficient at the ocean surface is, for all practical purposes, -1, and (practically) no energy is transmitted to the air, the impedance contrast being so great. Thus, the equation for T cited above gives the correct value for T, namely 0. Note that 1583:
I'm not sure that the current content in the marine section is totally relevant at present. There are a few short paragraphs to illustrate that seismic is disruptive and a quote from an IAGC report that's its not, presumably for balance. However, this is a very complex discussion depending upon which

Reflection seismic is not used to search for ores of gold, silver, copper, or other metals. It is not used to detect radioactive elements. Seismic is not used to detect submarines, lost oil wells, saline groundwater intrusion, or saline soil contamination. Other geophysical methods are much better in

The reflection and transmission coefficients are still wrong - one of them is. Hence the equation relating R to T is not verified. Maybe an expert can decide which is which. My guess is we are talking about pressure indeed, so that R is fine and T is wrong (should be something like T = 2 Z1 / (Z1+Z0)

Sound production typically begins with a “soft-start” or “ramp-up” that involves a gradual increase of the sound level from the air gun source from a very low level to full operational levels at the beginning of the seismic lines – usually over 20 to 40 minutes. This soft-start procedure is intended

But all this is beside the point: if the subject is of interest to you, it will probably interest others, and therefore you are right that it belongs in Knowledge. Regards.

As far as I know, GSI was bought by Halliburton in the late 1980s and merged with Geosource into Halliburton Geophysical Services (HGS). A few years later (about 1993), HGS was sold to Western Geophysical, then a division of Western Atlas. In 1998 or so, Western (as part of Western Atlas) was sold

My comments (not'draft'): Bright spots, flat-spots, etc have been recognised (and drilled, sometimes successfully) for decades but direct targeting really took off in the late 90's with emergence of relatively inexpensive 3D data and the high quality of deep-water data eg West Africa. The emergence

For any geophysical technique, I suppose that the applications for which it is not useful will always greatly outnumber those for which it is useful. If we start going down that path, we might dedicate a lot of article space to explain why it is not used for X, Y, or Z. Also, the literature is

You are certainly right that the soil/bedrock interface is an excellent reflector in both reflection and refraction seismic. You are also correct that ringing from the surface layer can obscure deeper interfaces. As for archaeology, you still run into the "file-drawer problem." If you do find

3D surveys only became viable during the 1980s due to economics, computational demands and even more practical things such as the volume of data being recorded vs. the volume of data that a magnetic tape could hold. I'm going to try and work on some of this article as it is really important.

You are right, it depends on what you are measuring. If you measure pressure, then pressure is zero on the free surface, hence reflected wave must have opposite sign to the incident wave to yield that zero, so that R=-1. Thus for pressure T=0, as you say. Conversely, at a very hard surface,

A final thought: perhaps archaeology simply hasn't yet discovered reflection seismology. Perhaps the specific technology used to find oil and gas deposits is not exactly a technology that would be of value in archaeology, but perhaps sound is
