Abstract

The applicability of refraction survey has been tested using a wave glider widely used in long-term ocean observations around the world. To record seismic refractions, a single channel streamer with metal weight and a seismic recording system were mounted on the wave glider. We used GPS precise time synchronization signal and radio frequency (RF) communication to synchronize shot and recorder triggers and to control acquired data quality in real time. When the wave glider is positioned close to the set point, a 2,000 J sparker is exploded along the designed track at 2 second intervals. Through the test survey, we were able to successfully acquire refractions from the subsurface.

전세계적으로 장기 해양 관측에 많이 활용되고 있는 웨이브글라이더를 이용하여 천해저 굴절법 탐사의 적용가능성을 시험하였다. 굴절파 기록을 위해 웨이브글라이더에 무게 추가 달린 단일채널 스트리머와 탄성파를 기록하는 상용 소프트웨어를 탑재하였다. GPS 정밀 시간동기 신호와 RF(radio frequency) 통신을 이용하여 트리거 동기화 및 실시간 자료품질 관리를 수행하였다. 웨이브글라이더가 설정 지점에 위치하게 되면, 설계된 측선을 따라 2,000 J 용량의 스파커를 2초 간격으로 발파하면서 탐사하였다. 첫 시험탐사를 통해 성공적으로 해저 천부지층 탄성파 굴절파를 취득할 수 있었다.
