INTRODUCTION

In 1981, 1982, and 1983 the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) aquired seismic refraction data along seven transects in the Great (or Central) Valley of California and its bordering regions. These transects were part of a geophysical study of the Great Valley which also included seismic reflection data (Zoback et al., 1984), aeromagnetic, gravity (Cady 1975). These Geophysical data were combined with surface geological data and geological borehole data to better constrain interpretations of the structure and evolution of this classic Mesozoic and early Cenozoic forearc.

Data from the southern cross-strike (east-west) profile shown on the insert to figure 1 has been published by Murphy and Walter (1984). The three shorter cross-strike profiles will be presented in a future report. This report is a compilation of the refraction data from the three axial profiles (figure 1). The data have been archived at the National Geophysical Data Center in Boulder, Colorado. Tapes are available from

U.S. Department of CommerceNational Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration325 BroadwayBoulder, CO 80303

Appendix C contains a description of the tape format.

COMPLETED ANALYSIS

Three papers presenting analysis of the seismic refraction data from this report were written by Hwang and Mooney (1986), Colburn and Mooney (1986), and Holbrook and Mooney (1987). Holbrook and Mooney and Colburn and Mooney presented 2-D velocity models of the central and western axial profiles, derived by forward modeling travel times using a 2-D raytracing algorithm (Luetgert, 1988; Cerveny, 1977) and modeling amplitudes with ray theoretical synthetic seismograms McMechan and Mooney (1980). In contrast to this method, Hwang and Mooney used a reflectivity synthetic seismogram method (Fuchs and Muller, 1971; Kind, 1978; 1979) to model data from one of the shot points (SP 11) on the western profile. Comparision of all three models were presented in Colburn and Mooney.

Interpretation of a typical cross-strike (east-west) transect, constrained by all the geological and geophysical data sets, is presented by Wentworth et al. (1987). A more focused study of the Franciscan assemblage and Great Valley sequence interface is presented by Wentworth et al. (1984). These papers present evidence for overthrusting from the west and soleing of the Coast Range Thrust into the basement.

DESCRIPTION OF THE AXIAL PROFILES

Three profiles were deployed along the axis of the Great Valley between October 1981 and June 1982 (figure 1). The western profile extended from Tracy, California southeast to Mendota, California (west of Fresno). Three shots, fired at shot points 11, 7, and 10, were recorded along this profile. Shot points 10 and 11 were located within the profile and shot point 7 was 4 kilometers east of the profile. Within the northern portion of the profile, between shot points 10 and 11, the seismic recorder station spacing was 1 kilometer; south of shot point 10 the spacing was increased to 5 kilometers. Along the central profile seismic recorders were deployed from Manteca, California southeast to Helm, California (southeast of Fresno) with a station spacing of approximately 2 kilometers. In-line shots fired at shot points 14, 15, and 16 were recorded along this profile. The profile deployed along the eastern edge of the Great Valley extended southeast from Herald, California (Northeast of Lodi) to Madera, California (northwest of Fresno) with a station spacing of 2 kilometers. Three in-line shots were fired at shot points 17, 18, and 19.

Locations and elevations for seismic recordering stations and shot points were determined using USGS 1:24,000 topographic maps. All the locations (Appendix A) are estimated to be accurate to within 15 meters.

Seismic sources were generated in 20 cm X 40 m drilled holes. Each hole was filled with an ammonium nitrate explosive and fired automatically with a shooting system described by Healy et al. (1982). A signal from a USGS master reference clock triggered the shooting system to fire an electic blasting cap, which sequentially caused the primacord, boosters, and the blasting agent to detonate. The blasting cap detonation signal (cap break), the USGS master reference clock's IRIG E time code, and the radio-recieved WWVB time code were recorded on a Kiowa paper strip-chart record. The shot origin times were read from the cap break on the paper record assuming that the explosives detonated at the exact time of the cap break. The reported shot times (table 1) are accurate to within + 2 milliseconds

INSTRUMENTATION AND DATA REDUCTION

The recording instruments used in the seismic-refraction surveys have been described by Murphy (1988) (figure 2). During the anolog recording process, ground motion is sensed by a 2-Hz vertical-component seismometer. The voltage output from the seismometer is split without amplification and sent to three parallel amplifier circuit boards. Each circuit board amplifies the seismic signal in three stages and then frequency modulates the signal. Amplification at the last two stages can be set by the user. An internal precision clock signal is also frequency modulated. The three data carrier frequencies, the clock carrier frequency, and a tape-speed compensation carrier frequency are summed and recorded on a cassette tape.

Prior to deployment, field technicians program the memory and synchronize the clock unit of each instrument with a USGS master reference clock (the same clocks used to trigger the shooting system). After the shots have been recorded, the clock unit of each instrument is compared to the master reference clock, and a clock drift time (in milliseconds) is recorded in the field notes. USGS master clocks, which drift approximately one millisecond per week, are periodically checked against the standard WWVB time signal.

Information pertaining to the operation of each instrument is entered on data sheets. Chronometer corrections' at shot time are calculated from each clock drift time assuming a linear drift rate (Appendix B). Both the data sheets and the chronometer corrections are written to a file which is used by the digitizing program. During the digitizing process, the cassette tapes are played back, and the signals are demultiplexed and demodulated. To

prevent accidental shifting of the data-carrier frequencies, the tape-speed compensation carrier frequency is demultiplexed and sent to a circuit board which continuously adjusts the speed of the tape deck such that the tape-speed compensation carrier frequency matches a locally generated reference frequency. An anolog-to-digital converter converts the signals to digital data which are stored on 8-inch floppy disks. The analog data were digitized for 20 seconds, starting (X/6 - 2) seconds prior to shot time, where X is the shot point to recorder distance in kilometers (Appendix B). The sampling rate for digitizing is 200 samples per second.

The complete system velocity response is roughly flat between 2 and 30 Hz and the approximate ground motion is given by

Ag (t) = _____A(t)__________ . _____A(t)____RSA RVCO DDSC DADC (409.6) RSA

where A(t) is the amplitude response and RGLE> RSA> RVCO> Dj)sc» and DADC are t*le amplitude factors of the major components (table 2, figure 3). The recording unit also performs and records a series of diagnostic tests and calibrations prior to each separate seismic window. The calibrations provide a complete system calibration scheme and are used to verify the actual gain of each data channel and the operation of the seismometer.

Archive Tape Data Format

Archive data tapes are written in SEGY standard format (Barry et al, 1975). Recording density is 16OO bpi, phase encoded (PE). In order to accomodate seismic refraction data, some minor changes have been made to the tape header fields. A complete list of header fields is provided in the card image portion of the reel identification header, shown below:

The data point format is "32 bit floating point*, and the appropriate bytes (3225-3226) of the binary reel id header contain a value of 1. The trace amplitudes have not been adjusted for instrument gain, but the gain correction factor can be estimated from the instrument attenuation value (alt) specified in bytes 121-122. To correct for gain, the data should be demeaned and then multiplied by

(att/20) 10

The measurement system (bytes 3255-3256 of the binary reel header) is set to 1, meters.

Shotpoint and receiver coordinates are in seconds of arc (byte field 89-90). The coordinate scalar multiplier (bytes 71-72) is set to -100, so the coordinates (bytes 73-8S) are in hundredths of a second of arc.

Bytes 157-166 and bytes 181-182 refer to the shot detonation time. The time of the first data sample is found by adding the shot detonation time to the time specified in bytes 201-204.

Since there is no weighting of amplitudes with distance for archive tapes, the distance weighting exponent (bytes 191-192) is not used.

Shot sequence number (bytes 193-194) refers to the order in which shots were fired during the field campaign.
