Seismic Studies at the Kola Super-Deep Drill Hole

这项研究是为了与苏联科学家合作在科拉超深井进行详细的地震测量。该项目涉及来自苏联地质部、苏联科学院地球物理研究所、怀俄明大学、格拉斯哥大学、爱丁堡大学和卑尔根大学的人员。将收集的地震数据包括井中的垂直地震剖面，100多公里的公共深点剖面，以及利用大激发进行地幔和地壳调查的详细折射-反射线。苏联将承担超过200万美元的数据获取成本。这项研究的结果对于解释世界各地正在进行的大量地壳地震研究将是非常宝贵的。

This research is for a cooperative project with Soviet scientists to conduct detailed seismic measurements at the Kola super-deep borehole. This project involves personnel from the Ministry of Geology of the USSR, the Institute for Physics of the Earth of the USSR Academy of Sciences, the University of Wyoming, the University of Glasgow, the University of Edinburgh, and the University of Bergen. Seismic data to be collected include a vertical-seismic profile in the borehole, a common-depth-point profile over more than 100 km, and a detailed refraction- reflection line using large shots for mantle as well as crustal investigation. The Soviets are to cover costs of data acquisition of over $2 million. The results of the research will be invaluable to interpretation of the numerous crustal seismic studies ongoing throughout the world.
