Abstract
The use of the shallow high-resolution reflection seismic method for mapping Arapahoe Formation sandstone lenses in the near subsurface at the Rocky Flats Plant near Golden, Colorado, was evaluated using seismic modeling. The modeling helped to determine the feasibility of using the shallow seismic reflection common depth point (CDP) method and to identify potential data acquisition and processing problems. Estimates of vertical and horizontal resolutions were also determined by analyzing the modeling results. The field acquisition parameters for the CDP method were selected after analysis of the synthetic displays. The seismic modeling provided a cost effective method to evaluate the feasibility of the shallow reflection method before performing field tests. 7 refs., 1 fig., 1 tab.
