"velocity" in inglés with examples - Collocation dictionary inglés
- However, it has recently been shown that they are not hot and that they owe their low seismic velocities to their distinct composition.
- These reflectors represent a change in rock properties across a boundary between two layers of rock, particularly seismic velocity and density.
- The 'Minus' component helps determine the seismic velocity of the refractive medium.
- For a complete model of the Earth, mineral physics is needed to interpret seismic velocities in terms of composition.
- As well, a very good model of the local crustal velocity structure is required: seismic velocities vary with the local geology.
- The core does not allow shear waves to pass through it, while the speed of travel (seismic velocity) is different in other layers.
- The changes in seismic velocity between different layers causes refraction owing to Snell's law, like light bending as it passes through a prism.
- Likewise, reflections are caused by a large increase in seismic velocity and are similar to light reflecting from a mirror.
- Low seismic attenuation, and high seismic velocities characterize this region.
- Today the zone is marked by relatively high heat flow and low seismic velocities in the crust.
