Abstract

Refraction wave often be think as disturbing wave in reflection seismic exploration. In this paper, the authors analyze the differences and relations of travel-time curve between refraction wave and reflection wave. It shows by three examples that making full use of refraction data in reflection survey can raise efficiency and accuracy of seismic exploration greatly. It also can make the interpretation of seismic data more sufficiency.
