Measuring and Modeling of P- and S-Wave Velocities on Crustal Rocks: A Key for the Interpretation of Seismic Reflection and Refraction Data
Figure 2
P- and S-wave velocities as a function of pressure up to 600 MPa (room temperature) (Figure (a), (c)–(e), resp.) of a biotite gneiss (OKU 578) from Outokumpu, along with the temperature dependence of P-wave velocities measured at 600 MPa confining pressure (b). (f) illustrates the measuring directions of P- and S-wave velocities and shear wave polarization according the foliation-related structural frame X, Y, and Z (XY is foliation, X is lineation, and Z is foliation normal).
