Value of Information in the Earth Sciences: Integrating Spatial Modeling and Decision Analysis

Accumulating the correct and the correct amount of data is important for any decision-making technique. This publication offers a unified framework for assessing the price of strength info accumulating schemes through integrating spatial modelling and selection research, with a spotlight on this planet sciences. The authors speak about the worth of imperfect as opposed to excellent info, and the worth of overall as opposed to partial details, the place in basic terms subsets of the knowledge are got.

Example text

The Widess diagram used for all the above conclusions assumes the same material above and below the thin layer {and therefore equal amplitudes of the two reflections}. This may be close enough in many sand-shale situations. For other situations we may have to draw an equivalent diagram, using reflection pulses of the same shape but different amplitudes. The general effect, of course, is a reduction in the appearances of interference-first constructive and then destructive-between the two reflections.

5) We have said that we expect diffractions wherever there is a rapid spatial change of acoustic hardness. At an angular unconformity, this condition must arise whenever two adjacent truncated beds are markedly dissimilar. In other words, if the interface between two formations is generating a strong reflection, and then those two formations are truncated at an unconformity, we expect significant diffractions from the point where the three materials meet. A sequence of strong reflectors, when truncated at a steep angle, generates the appearance of a thousand Fu-Manchu moustaches.

They are laterally equivalent to fluvial sands and prodelta and marine clays and consist of two types: delta front or fringe sands and abandoned distributary channel sands. Fringe sands are sheetlike and their landward margins are abrupt (against organic clays of the deltaic plain). Seaward these sands grade into the finer prodelta and marine sediments. Distributary channel sandstones are narrow, with abrupt basal contacts and decrease in grain size upward. They cut into or completely through the fringe sands, and are also connected with the upstream fluvial sands of braided or meandering streams.
