Zusammenfassung |
V P/V S or Poison’s ratio classically permit imaging fluids in rocks but this strategy remains
underused in near-surface applications, hence in hydrogeophysics. Yet, P-wave refraction
tomography and surface-wave dispersion inversion can be combined to produce 2D V P and
V S sections from a single acquisition set up. This approach recently proved to be efficient in
the study of various hydrosystems and in the imaging of the Critical Zone. We
now suggest its time-lapse application in order to help the monitoring of water
content in the vadose zone/aquifer continuum. With both laboratory experiments
and field data, we show how the temporal variations of P-wave travel times and
surface-wave dispersion are strongly associated to the variations of water content
observed locally, thus encouraging to exploit the full wealth of seismic signals in
hydrogeophysics. |
