High resolution seismic characterization of the shallow subsurface of the Loranca Basin (Spain): local 2D transects

A high-resolution 2-D seismic reflection survey was acquired to obtain a seismic image of the geological structure of the Záncara river basin (eastern Spain). The study area consists of lutites and gypsum from a Neogene sedimentary sequence. The project also targeted the geometry of the geological structure and the mechanical properties of the underground materials. In addition, this study allowed for an improvement of the geophysical acquisition technics and protocols that provided with a better resolution seismic imaging. Thus, reducing costs and improving the effectiveness of the seismic acquisition.
