被动地震记录的尾波常常是几个台站相干的到达波。如果可以提取反射,那么它们就可以用于地震反射地下成像。为了对智利北部前地壳(安第斯山脉中部;大致位置21°S 69°W)的上地壳进行成像,我们开发了一种将被动地震数据处理成地下反射图像的工作流程。我们利用石油工业中使用的主动(受控源)地震成像的信号处理和成像技术,分析了数百个微震事件的波形记录。关键的处理步骤包括精确的到达时间拾取和震中确定,消除由于源辐射模式变化而引起的信号幅度变化,识别和分离反射和相干噪声,以及将处理后的波形转换为地下反射率的图像。在设计我们的微地震反射成像工作流程时,我们利用了这样一个事实,即震中位于深处、接收器位于地表的被动地震记录几何结构类似于反向垂直地震剖面实验。得到的P-AND波反射图像揭示了几种反射特征,如在5-25公里深度范围内约15°向西倾斜的反射层,与明显的地震活动边界基本一致。我们将成像界面解释为脆-韧性过渡带边界,可能是由构造剪切带增强的。对于智利北部Precordillera地区,推导出的水平延伸约50亿公里的微地震反射剖面是第一批高分辨率的浅地壳图像,这是以前的活动震源地震反射数据无法获得的。
The coda of passive seismic recordings is often rich in arrivals that are coherent across several stations. If reflections can be extracted, then they may be used for seismic reflection subsurface imaging. With the objective to image the upper crust of the North Chilean Precordillera (Central Andes; approximate location 21°S 69°W), we developed a workflow to process passive seismic data into subsurface reflection images. We analysed the waveform recordings of several hundred microseismic events using signal processing and imaging techniques adapted from active (controlled source) seismic imaging as used in the oil industry. Key processing steps involved precise arrival time picking and hypocentre determination, removing signal amplitude variations due to varying source radiation patterns, identification and separation of reflections from coherent noise, and transformation of the processed waveforms into images of the subsurface reflectivity. When designing our microseismic reflection imaging workflow, we took advantage of the fact that the passive seismic recording geometry with the hypocentres located at depth and the receivers positioned at the surface resembles a reverse vertical-seismic profiling experiment. The resultantP- andS-wave reflection images reveal several reflective features, such as an approximate 15° westward dipping reflector over the 5–25 km depth range that largely coincides with a distinct seismicity boundary. We interpret the imaged interface as the brittle-ductile transition zone boundary, possibly enhanced by a tectonic shear zone. For the area of the North Chilean Precordillera, the deduced microseismic reflection sections with horizontal extensions of about 50 km represent the first high-resolution images of the shallow crust, which could not be obtained from previous active-source seismic-reflection data.
