SEA SEISMOMETER COUPLING ON THE SEDIMENT

Xavier Roset, Montserrat Carbonell, Antoni Mànuel, Spartacus Gomáriz
Abstract:
We can obtain the performance of the marine seismometer upon the sediment to know its coupling in the bottom sea. This paper deals with the coupling parameters in order to obtain the geophone response through the frequency. The use of the shake table and vibration calibrator allows to deduce the coupling transfer function between the geophone and the sediment sea without using a detailed model of interaction sensor/seabed.
