Title: Correlation of Reflection Seismograph Records in California

Author(s): Henry Salvatori (2)

Abstract:

Reflection records in California can not always be correlated on the basis of character, interval, et cetera. In those areas where the reflecting strata are not persistent or are subject to lateral changes in physical character a knowledge of the slope of the strata is essential for the proper interpretation of the records. A brief outline of a method for determining the dip of a reflecting surface is presented and the manner in which this method may be utilized to aid in the correlation of records is indicated. The major areas of California offering possibilities for reflection work are classified according to their geologic sections into two general groups, and typical reflection records secured in an area of each group are reproduced and discussed.
