Borehole Seismic Data

 

 

IODP logging contractor: USIO/LDEO

Hole: U1437D

Expedition: 350

Location: Izu-Bonin-Mariana Rear Arc (Philippine Sea)

Latitude: 31° 47.3874' N

Longitude: 139° 01.5723' E

Logging date: April 21-23, 2014

Sea floor depth (driller’s): 2127.3 m DRF

Sea floor depth (logger's): 2126.5 m WRF (MSS/HRLA/APS/HLDS/EDTC-B/HNGS Main Run)

Total penetration (RCB coring):  3107.7 m DRF (980.4 m DSF) .

Total core recovered: 78 m ( 78 % of cored interval). Upper 440 m cored in hole B (55% recovery).

Oldest sediment recovered: 6 Ma, Upper Miocene (from paleomagnetic measurements. All microfossils
recovered are too reworked for proper biostratigraphic identification)

Lithology: Mud with dispersed ash, intercalated intervals of mafic and evolved ash, tuff, tuffaceous mudstone.

 

TOOL USED: VSI (Versatile Seismic Imager)

 

The logging data was recorded by Schlumberger in LDF/DLIS format. All processing, including first arrival picking and stacking, was performed by Schlumberger during Expedition . The data was then converted into SEGY format at USIO/LDEO, using tcode developed in house.

 

Stacks are generally calculated with at least nine good traces.

 

All the data in the SEGY files are sorted shot by shot (i.e. chronologically).
