MICROLEVELLING PROCESSING OF AIRBORNE GEOPHYSICAL DATA
LUO Yao, WANG Lin-fei, HE Hui
Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration    2012, 36 (5): 851-855.   DOI: 10.11720/wtyht.2012.5.28
Abstract6872)      PDF (1369KB)(1077)      
Airborne geophysical data often suffer from corrugations or line level errors, which can be adjusted or removed by using levelling procedure. Levelling is a critical step in airborne geophysical data processing and interpretation. Microlevelling routine can be applied to removing the remaining line level after tie line leveling. Based on practical aeromagnetic data levelling, the authors deal in detail with the principle of microlevelling and key steps in microlevelling procedure. For the purpose of microlevelling data, a directional high pass filter perpendicular to the flight line direction is first employed to produce a decorrugation noise grid. The noise grid is then extracted as new channel flight data. Amplitude limiting and low pass filtering can be applied to the noise channel so as to remove the residual geological signal and leave only the component of line level drift, which is then subtracted from the original data to produce the final microlevelled data. This paper has also discussed some key technical problems in airborne geophysical data leveling, especially in microlevelling. The discussion in this paper may be useful in practical data processing.

AN ALGORITHM FOR DETECTION OF SHALLOWLY BURIED SMALL
OBJECTS BASED ON PRINCIPAL COMPONENT ANALYSIS
FENG Wen-Ya, PENG Zheng-Hui, FEI Xiang-Yu, YING Ping
Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration    2010, 34 (4): 493-496.  
Abstract5563)      PDF (630KB)(953)      

 It is difficult to exactly detect small objects in complex shallow subsurface. As the energy of backscattered signal from the target is low, backscattered signals from target and ground surface are overlapped. In addition, clutters created by ground surface and movement strongly depress the signaltoclutter ratio when shallowly buried small objects are detected by portable ground penetrating radar (GPR). An algorithm for detection of shallowly buried objects based on principal component analysis (PCA) is thus proposed in this paper. Via PCA decomposition, current Ascan data are projected onto the projecting direction of background data. A set test function is compared with adaptive threshold to decide if current Ascan data are from an object. Detection of shallowly buried small objects can be achieved in combination with background data dynamic updating. The data tested in sand, laterite, clay and lawn were processed, and the results show that shallowly buried objects can be detected using algorithm based on PCA.

GEOCHEMICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF TRACE ELEMENTS IN THE DIORITE WEATHERED CRUST OF ZIGUI AREA
ZHANG Yuan-pei, HUAN Chun-juan, SUN Wei-guo, LUO Bi-ji
Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration    2012, 36 (5): 755-759.   DOI: 10.11720/wtyht.2012.5.10
Abstract5114)      PDF (884KB)(747)      
Based on studying the distribution of trace elements in the dioritic weathered crust of Zigui area, the authors have divided the trace elements into three types. The first type consists of inactive elements which include Sc, V, Cr, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Zr, Hf, Nb and Ta, U, Th, Mo, W. During the weathering process, they can be effectively preserved. Due to the influence of redox condition variation, U, Cr and Cu sometimes show local enrichment, without obvious regularity. The second type is composed of active elements such as Ca, Rb, Cs, Sr, Ba, Pb, Ga, Gd, and Tl, which are gradually leached from profiles along with the weathering. The third type is represented by REE, which are leached from the upper section downward, and enrichment is observed in the mid-lower section, with the leaching degree of HREE higher than that of LREE. Eu gradually changes from positive anomalies in parent rocks into negative anomalies on the surface due to the weathering leaching of plagioclase in parent rocks under the oxidation environment. Under the surface oxidation condition, Ce easily produces tetravalence oxides (cerianite) and shows obvious surface enrichment, and the variation of the redox conditions leads to the undulate variation of Ce.

LUO Zhi-feng, WU Xiao-ping
Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration    2011, 35 (2): 218-222.  
Abstract5102)      PDF (1155KB)(1458)      

:The double current supply, inline and combined pole-dipole/dipole-pole array for time domain induced polarization method is an unsymmetrical arrangement sounding technology composed of forward pole-dipole and reverse dipole-pole array. This paper shows the sounding principle with graphical representation. For collecting resistivity and chargeability raw data distribution features in the pseudosection with forward pole-dipole and reverse dipole-pole array, it is similar to MT in that MT raw data obtain "static state effect", and resistivity and chargeability raw data also obtain "partial topography " and "electromagnetism noise" effect and assumes "false belt anomaly" features. Forward pole-dipole and reverse dipole-pole array obtains resistivity and chargeability data and can respectively process two-dimension inversion, but only the combined pole-dipole/dipole-pole array can get the best geological effect, indicating that the strongpoint of the electrodes configuration array is that it can obtain massive collection data, strong induced polarization signal, larger penetration depth and highly surveying accuracy. With the electrical property parameters for resistivity and chargeability two-dimension inversion imaging techniques in the geoelectrical section, we can accurately determine the spatial distribution of the electric anomaly body and can also provide accurate geophysical basis for drilling verification of the electric anomaly.

XIAO Min, CHEN Chang-yan, SU Zhao-feng, JIA Hui, ZHANG Hui
Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration    2013, 37 (2): 368-372.   DOI: 10.11720/j.issn.1000-8918.2013.2.37
Abstract4183)      PDF (780KB)(1541)      
Usually, city road consists of the surface layer and the subbase layer, and each layer contains several layers of different media with different relative dielectric constants. So using one relative dielectric constant to analyze the GPR data of all depths in city road detection is not accurate. This paper deduced the calculation formula of the equivalent dielectric constant of multi-layer underground media. Then the authors took two-layer media model and three-layer media model as examples to calculate the equivalent dielectric constant and the relation between the depth and the travel time. At last, theoretical modeling data of two-layer media were used to check the formula, and the results prove that the calculation formula of equivalent dielectric constant of multi-layer underground media is much better for practical GPR data analysis when there are multi-layer underground media.

A COMPARISON OF SEVERAL THRESHOLD DETERMINATION METHODS IN GEOCHEMICAL DATA PROCESSING: A CASE STUDY OF STREAM SEDIMENTS IN CHABAQI AREA OF INNER MONGOLIA
DAI Hui-Min, GONG Chuan-Dong, BAO Qing-Zhong, SUN Zhong-Ren, YOU Hong-Liang, JIN Xin, GAO Fei
Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration    2010, 34 (6): 782-786.  
Abstract3879)      PDF (1006KB)(1855)      

The authors made statistic calculation of stream sediment data using such means as traditional statistics, robust estimation,cumulative percentage of 85% and multifractal statistical method in Chabaqi area and compared the thresholds obtained by the four methods. The thresholds of the same elements obtained by the four methods are obviously different from each other. The thresholds calculated by the cumulative percentage statistics are lowest except for lead, and the thresholds calculated by the other three methods fail to show obvious regularity.The results are closely related to the distribution characteristics of the geochemical data and the statistical methods used. Comparing the anomaly characteristics with the geological characteristics, the authors have found that, although weak and gentle geochemical anomalies will be mostly detected by cumulative percentage of 85%, the larger anomaly areas will bring difficulties to anomaly inspection in the field. It is therefore thought that the thresholds obtained by multifractal statistical method are suitable for the study area. A comparative study of the thresholds has led the authors to believe that the reasonable method must be combined with the actual geological conditions and based on a thorough study of the geological background of the study area.

Abstract3789)      PDF (726KB)(1643)      
A soil gas radon survey was performed on a large scale to determine the distribution of radon in soil of Zhuhai City in Guangdong Province by means of a portable radon monitor of a semiconductor alpha spectroscopy. The survey sampled 469 sites covering an area of more than 100 km2. The average of soil radon concentration in the soil depth of 0.6 m is 55.94 ± 58.54 kBq/m3 in Zhuhai urban area, whereas the concentration is 7.14±8.75, 37.64±25.92, and 151.25±196.23 kBq/m3 in the Quaternary sediments, the mixtures of sediments and weathered grain of granite, and the weathered granite in Doumen District, respectively. The high radon potential areas are located within biotitic granites and new industrial districts, as indicated by the strong correlation between the radioactivity level and geological lithology. The mean value of soil gas radon concentration in Zhuhai urban area (ZUA) is about ten times as high as that in Guangzhou, Quanzhou and Jinjing City. The results show that Zhuhai area has higher radon potential, and hence protective measures against radon should be taken into account.

ZHANG Ying, PAN Bao-zhi
Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration    2011, 35 (5): 634-638,642.  
Abstract3704)      PDF (825KB)(1058)      

From the viewpoint of chemical composition categorization and structure classification of rocks, an effective method was proposed to identify the lithology of volcanic rocks by using logging data. On the one hand, the conventional logging data could be obtained by core wafer identification. Thus, after processing the data with Support Vector Machines (SVM) method of statistical theory, we could get the lithologic type of the volcanic rocks, which are classified according to the chemical composition of rocks. On the other hand, the volcanic rocks can be classified as volcanic lava, pyroclastic lava and pyroclastic rock according to the rock structure. Typical formation micro-resistivity imaging logging (FMI) image mode can be concluded by establishing the corresponding relationship between FMI images and lithology of volcanic rocks with different structures. As a result, the lithologic type of the volcanic rock classified by rock structure can be determined. Finally, by combining these two kinds of lithology, the ultimate rock lithology can be determined, too. In this paper, the authors presented a novel method to identify the lithology of volcanic rocks by combining SVM processed logging data and FMI image mode.

In recent years, with the implementation of three-dimensional deep geological mapping and shale gas bearing basin prospective evaluation, magnetotelluric method, as one of geophysical methods, has become more and more important. There are a finite number of challenging problems in magnetotelluric data processing and interpretation such as impedance tensor rotation, TE and TM mode identification, static distortion correction, and selection of TE and TM for 2D inversion. Based on magnetotelluric module in WinGlink software, the authors adopted five impedance tensor rotation methods and three curve smoothing methods to process the magnetotelluric data gathered in Jarud Banner, Inner Mongolia. Three stations with different qualities in one profile were chosen to process. The results of five rotation methods and three smoothing methods were analyzed and assessed. Polar diagram analysis of three stations showed that the geological models under themselves were three-dimensional. The comparative study is critical for three-dimensional geological models, and is especially much instructive to the processing and interpretation of magnetotelluric data by using WingGlink software.

Abstract3529)      PDF (631KB)(641)      

In order to evaluate environmental effects of the chemical speciation of cadmium, the authors studied soils with high content of cadmium in Guiyang, and investigated the crop, water pollution and endermic diseases. Some conclusions have been reached: Cadmium is existent mainly in exchangeable fraction, residual phase, and Fe-Mn oxide phase, subordinately in weak organic combinational state and carbonate phase, and very lowly in water soluble phase. In vertical profile of soil,cadmium content decreases with increasing soil depth, cadmium is more concentrated in surface soil, and the distribution of chemical speciation of cadmium in deep soil is similar to that of surface soil. The water has not been polluted by cadmium in abnormal areas, and cadmium in such crops as rice, pepper and tobacco has exceed the state standard. In addition, local disease symptoms induced by cadmium has appeared in some areas. Therefore, the crops and human health are adversely affected by the high soil background values of cadmium in Guiyang, and the potential threat is serious.

Geophysical and Geochemical Exploration    2009, 33 (4): 453-457.  
Abstract3436)      PDF (2025KB)(1992)      

The algorithm of the finite difference oforder velocitystress staggered grids has been built, which is

suitable for the perfectly matched layer (PML) absorbing boundary for elastic media. Meanwhile, the construction of the

PML absorbing boundary condition and the realization of the finitedifference algorithm are discussed in detail. Wave

field modeling calculations show that, compared with the conventional decaying exponential absorbing boundary and non

absorbing boundary, the PML absorbing boundary can perform absorption much more clearly and absorb the boundary

reflection from various angles, whose absorptivity (the ratio of absorption energy to unabsorbable energy) can reach

99.99%. The PML absorbing boundary can well eliminate the periodic folding effects, which makes the calculation of the

wave field characteristics very distinct, and the Rayleigh wave can be clearly shown in the waveform record.

Abstract3295)      PDF (1813KB)(807)      
Tilt-angle derivatives method requires no source property and structural index and can quickly estimate magnetic source boundary location and depth distribution, thus having good prospect in rapid interpretation of large-area magnetic anomalies. In this paper, the authors present some algorithm improvements based on Salem's tilt-angle derivatives method. Finite difference method is used in space domain to convert horizontal derivatives of magnetic anomalies, and ISVD algorithm is employed to convert high-level vertical derivatives of magnetic anomalies. A method is also presented which combines the filtering generalized tilt-angle total horizontal derivatives of magnetic anomalies with screening the effectiveness of source depth to remove bad solutions. Theoretical model test shows that this method is simple and quick, and hence its effect is obvious.
