Description
Summary:Abstract We present the solution to the problem of detecting the gas layers in the Arctic conditions through the numerical modelling of the seismic waves spread in the heterogeneous media. The grid-characteristic method of the third order of accuracy is used in all the computations. We build the models with the different numbers of the gas layers and analyze the full wave fields in the heterogeneous media and the anomalous fields, excluding the seismic reflections from all the geological layers except for the gas layers. The results demonstrate the possibility of applying the grid-characteristic method to solving these problems. The result seismograms allow us to determine the location of the gas layers through collecting the time moments of the coming reflections from the gas layers to the seismic receivers.
