Index..      Resolution Notes .. Exercises to accompany Resolution 1. What is the dominant frequency needed to discern thickness of the following value in shallow, soft sediments in which sound travels barely above the speed of sound in salt water? What is the horizontal resolution in 2 m of water of the first layer just under the seafloor?  Use a high frequency of 1000 Hz. 2. What is the dominant frequency needed to discern sand beds 10 meters thick in the upper 100 m of Gulf Coast sediments? Use 1000 m/s as a maximum and 300 m/s second as a minimum to look at the ranges.  What is the horizontal resolution in 2 m of water of the first layer just under the seafloor?  Use a frequency of 400 Hz. 3. If the "target" depth is 30 km, at Moho depths where Vp=6,500 m/s and returning f=10 Hz what are the vertical and horizontal resolutions?  What type of geological igneous bodies can be resolved with these values for the seismic data. 4. By hand measuring the dominant wavelet in the seismic data given out, and velocities in the range of X to Y m/s determine the horizontal and vertical seismic resolution in the data.
