During September 1988, the U.S. Geological Survey, the Geophysics Laboratory, and the Geological Survey of Canada conducted a seismic refraction experiment across Ontario, New York and New England. This report is a compilation of the Geophysics Laboratory (GL) three component refraction and wide angle reflection data recorded during Deployments One, Two and Three across the Adirondack Mountains of upstate New York and the Green Mountains of Vermont and southern New Hampshire. The appendix includes data collected by Boston College and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, which extends the coverage of GL deployment Two at both ends of the profile. These profiles were designed to constrain the three-dimensional velocity structure and bulk composition of the Earth's crust and upper mantle across the northern Appalachian Mountains and western Grenville province using three component seismic refraction data.
"This volume contains a comprehensive, worldwide history of seismological studies of the Earth's crust using controlled sources from 1850 to 2005. Essentially all major seismic projects on land and the most important oceanic projects are covered. The time period 1850 to 1939 is presented as a general synthesis, and from 1940 onward the history and results are presented in separate chapters for each decade, with the material organized by geographical region. Each chapter highlights the major advances achieved during that decade in terms of data acquisition, processing technology, and interpretation methods. For all major seismic projects, the authors provide specific details on field observations, interpreted crustal cross sections, and key references. They conclude with global and continental-scale maps of all field measurements and interpreted Moho contours. An accompanying DVD contains important out-of-print publications and an extensive collection of controlled-source data, location maps, and crustal cross sections."--Publisher's description.
