    Notes: The paper discusses the variations of Elevation Correction Factors (E.C.F.) across various stratigraphical and structural occurrences with particular reference to the dipping bed, fault and horst. Graphs are prepared giving E.C.F. variations for various angles of dip and a method is suggested for application in the field. Errors in the linear variation that is commonly used for small angles of dip are discussed.The second part of the paper consists of the application to interpretation of (I) Change of gravity dip and (2) The gravity inversion. It is shown how from a gravity map the dip, position of outcrop and thickness of a dipping bed can be determined. The last part shows how anticlines can give rise to negative anomalies and that in the direction of dip similar structures can at one point have no surface expression and afterwards invert to positive anomalies. The danger of attempting to predict the size of structures in such areas is emphasised.

    Notes: When gravimetric prospecting is concerned with a region featuring broken relief the calculation of topographical corrections becomes vitally important, for these rectify apparent anomalies completely. It is essential that they should be calculated as exactly as possible. By the classic method this takes an extremely long time and may in the long run involve an outlay actually higher than that expended on operations on the terrain.It has thus been felt necessary to seek methods which would speed up calculation, and, bearing that in mind, the use of a polar integrator has been envisaged. With this the contour lines of a map can be followed between two fixed radii, the pole corresponding to the location of the position. Two integrator roulettes will give the values of the first two terms of the expansion in terms of the quotient of the height divided by the distance, the second of the terms resulting from the curvature of the earth. Unless there are escarpments very close to the position, the use of these two terms will be sufficient.Polar integration will deal successively with different contour lines and a subsidiary graph will be plotted, giving the value of each of the integrals in terms of the height. By means of this subsidiary graph the values of the corrections will be obtained with a planimeter and a moment integrator. It is envisaged that the same operation could be repeated in the case of two maps with different scales, for instance, 1–20,000 and 1–200,000 the effect of the areas in the immediate neighbourhood of the position being taken into account by the observer. It is hoped that in this way the calculation of topographical corrections will be made quicker, more exact and less laborious.

    Notes: The problems connected with reflexion surveys in areas of rough topography consist of choosing proper equipment and of making careful near-surface corrections. This paper illustrates some solutions to these problems that have been adopted in a survey which has recently started in a hily coastal area, in Southern Italy.As the area is characterized by a youthful and very actively eroded topography of Post-Miocene clays and litoral clastic sediments, both rotary and percussion drilling were necessary whilst all the seismic equipment had to be light to allow straight lines to be shot as far as possible. Details are given of the truckmounted, light equipment which has been designed for this special purpose.In connection with the youthful topography of the area being surveyed, the criteria for the proper computation of the near-surface corrections is discussed. The great differences in elevation, combined with variations in the surface and near-surface materials, necessitated a careful analysis before deciding the thickness of the correction zone. The results are shown of the preliminary tests carried out in order to determine the average thickness of the low-velocity zone. The solution adopted for drawing the reference surface determining the base of the correction zone for the whole of the area is subseqently explained.Reference datum is drawn so as to follow gently, and with segments of constant slopes, the general features of the rough topographic relief at a depth ranging from 30 to 60 metres from the surface. Criteria for the routine checking of velocity variations in the correction zone are illustrated. Such checks are based on both uphole time analyses and refraction “first breaks” plots, with deeper shot holes at constant intervals.Unsatisfactory results necessitate longer spreads for “low velocity tests” and uphole shooting from deeper holes and the reference datum is deepened for the particular area where this becomes necessary.The final cross-sections are shown and although, as yet, no deep holes, are available to check the seismic data, the general appearance of the cross-sections seems to indicate that subsurface data are free from the influence of topography and of the velocities in the near-surface formations.

    Notes: The paper describes the determination of the chlorine content of deep ground water by means of the direct resistivity method using the Wenner electrode configuration. The purpose was to investigate the distribution of salinity in the brackish waters within a permeable sand of thickness 250 metres and which forms the deeper subsoil of the Ysselmeer areas.Such a knowledge is of great value, firstly because the seepage of salt water into the proposed deep “polders” may reduce the crop yield, and secondly because it allows areas, where potable waters may occur, to be delineated.To test the method, measurements were made near existing boreholes which extended to a depth of 350 metres. From these borings water samples from various depths were collected and it was found that the resistivity pl of the porewater was closely related to their chlorine content. The resistivity p of the saturated sand was determined from the geo-electrical measurements. It was found that the resistivity p was given by p= 4, 5 pl. From this relation, which is independent of the salinity, the chlorine content of the porewater could be estimated. These results are in close agreement with those of other observers. In the area p varied from 1 to 200 ohmmetres corresponding to a chlorine content changing from 12.000 to 15 mg per litre.The method was adapted for working over water. Each of fourteen insulated conductors in a special cable terminated in an electrode, and these electrodes were spaced along the cable so that nine different Wenner spacings could be selected. The electrode separations varied from 44 metres up to 306 metres.

    Notes: The authors develop an optimum filtering theory for seismic reflection recording. A criterion of record improvement is applied to a mathematical model consisting of a set of wavelets superimposed on a random noise backgruond. This leads to the design of electrical filters and geophone and shot-hole patterns with optimum filtering characteristics.

    Notes: An approximate method of interpretation of resistivity sounding is presented, which may be described as a very crude manner of application of the exact direct interpretation method. The accuracy of this method is fairly low, the errors being in the order of 25%. The method is very fast in application and well suited for application to multilayer cases. The main advantage of the method is that it is in close and clear relation to the exact theory.

    Notes: Dip selective migration velocity determination calculates coherency of energy migrating into an output trace or ‘MVD-axis’ as a function of the three variables time, velocity, and dip. In doing so, it provides additional information, the dip information, relative to standard MVD.

    Notes: It is well known that interval velocities can be determined from common-reflection-point moveout times. However, the mathematics becomes complicated in the general case of n homogeneous layers with curved interfaces dipping in three dimensions.In this paper the problem is solved by mathematical induction using the second power terms only of the Taylor series which represents the moveout time as a function of the coordinate differences between shot and geophone points. Moreover, the zero-offset reflection times of the nth interface in a certain area surrounding the point of interest have to be known. The n—I upper interfaces and interval velocities are known too on account of the mathematical induction method applied. Thus, the zero-offset reflection raypath of the nth interface can be supposed to be known down to the intersection with the (n—1)th interface.The method applied consists mainly in transforming the second power terms of the moveout time from one interface to the next one. This is accomplished by matrix algebra.Some special cases are discussed as e.g. uniform strike and small curvatures.

    Notes: The least squares estimation procedures used in different disciplines can be classified in four categories:〈list xml:id="l1" style="custom"〉a. Wiener filtering,b. b. Autoregressive estimation,c. c. Kalman filtering,d. d. Recursive least squares estimation.The recursive least squares estimator is the time average form of the Kalman filter. Likewise, the autoregressive estimator is the time average form of the Wiener filter. Both the Kalman and the Wiener filters use ensemble averages and can basically be constructed without having a particular measurement realisation available.It follows that seismic deconvolution should be based either on autoregression theory or on recursive least squares estimation theory rather than on the normally used Wiener or Kalman theory. A consequence of this change is the need to apply significance tests on the filter coefficients.The recursive least squares estimation theory is particularly suitable for solving the time variant deconvolution problem.
