synthetic seismograms from the Jeanne d'Arc basin, offshore Newfoundland
This investigation in the Jeanne d’Arc Basin, offshore Newfoundland, involves a petrophysical analysis to determine the relationship of Vp/Vs to lithology and the evaluation of PP and PS synthetic seismograms for these Vp/Vs values. The petrophysical analysis indicates that the sediments in the Jean...
